Objective To calibrate and assess the dose distribution of 125 I seed brachytherapy. Methods Twenty 125 I seeds, each with activity of 12.2 MBq, were implanted on the circumference of a circle 15mm across in a phantom. Into a designed prostate model, 70 125 I seeds were implanted in four planes. The absorbed dose rate of the target volume was monitored by Farmar 2570 dosimeter and thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) with the isodose curves drawn on Kodak films. Results The central dose rates of the circular target volume assessed by Farmar 2570 and TLD were 8.4, 7.9 cGy/h in the phantom and 12.0, 11.1 cGy/h in the prostate model. For the target volume of the prostate model, the total absorbed dose was 24?219 cGy. The dose rate 4 cm from the prostate cancer as shown by the isodose curves was only 10% of the central dose rate. Conclusion The central dose rate of target volume measured by the two methods are similar.

Purpose:To assess the value and limitation of CT in staging colorectal carcinoma.Methods:CT was performed prior to surgery in 46 patients with 48 colorectal carcinomas for staging the tumor. The results were compared with those of surgical and pathological examinations in all cases in order to study the sensitivity of staging the tumor before operation.Results:(1) CT depicted 31 of 33 pathologically confirmed T4 lesions (beyond the serosa) in all 48 primary carcinomas,appearance of T4 lesion were defined as either strands of soft tissue or nodules into the peri-colorectal fat ,or hyperdensity of pericolorectal fat. (2)Pathologic examination of lymphatic metastases unfirmed 20 of 40 patients who underwent complete resections, and these lymph nodes were not larger than 1cm in 17 patients.The sensitivity is 70%(14/20)and the specificity 85%(17/20)respectively in detection of lymphatic metastases for CT. (3) The accuracy of CT staging was 81.25%,77.50% in T,N respectively in this group of patients,and CT showed all 4 cases of liver metastases and 6 of 7 peritoneal metastases. Conclusions:CT is accurate in detecting T4 stage of colorectal carcinoma. It is effective in depicting local extension and distant metastases. The value of CT for early T staging and N staging in colorectal carcinoma is limited.

Objective To study the dose rate distribution on cultured cell plane and establish a reference dose rate table of in vitro cell line ~(125)I seed irradiator.Methods Thermoluminescence dosimetry(TLD) was used to measure the irradiation dose rate of a single 6711 model(~(125) I) seed with apparent activity of 10.323 MBq in water at point P.Meanwhile,the theoretic value of the irradiation dose rate at point P was calculated with theoretic formula.The difference between the calculated and observed values within 10% was set as standard to analyze the accuracy of the measurement.The irradiation dose rate of a single 6711 model(~(125) I) seed was measured in 1mm-thick polystyrene + water medium at point P.The value was applied to differential or non-differential proof along with the value from water medium to study the effect of 1 mm thick polystyrene on distribution of irradiation dose in water.Finally,by simulating the(~(125) I) seed plane irradiator with nine(~(125) I) seeds,the distribution table of irradiation dose rate on the cultured cell plane was calculated with theoretical formula.Results The observed value(n= 10) of irradiation dose rate with one(~(125) I) seed in water at point P was(0.359?0.023)cGy/h and the calculated value was 0.347cGy/h,the difference was within 10%.The observed value(n=10) of irradiation dose of one(~(125) I) seed in 1mm-thick polystyrene + water medium at point P was (0.350?0.027)cGy/h,which showed no statistical difference from the observed value in water under differential and non-differential proof.The reference table on dose rate distribution for cells exposed to(~(125) I) seed irradiation in vitro was developed.Conclusions 1mm-thick polystyrene gives no significant effect on irradiation dose rate distribution from(~(125) I) seeds in water.A reference table on the dose rate distribution for cells exposed to(~(125) I) seed irradiation in vitro has been developed,which can be used to determine an optimal irradiating strategy for future work.
