Objective To investigate the dose distribution and radiation risk of Varian thoracic cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) with default parameters with reference to Monte Carlo simulation and International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) report 110.Methods EGSnrc/BEAMnrc code was used to simulate the material, thickness, and geometry of the kV CBCT source (kVS) to establish the kVS model.A benchmarked MCSIM code was applied to calculate the dose distribution in the ICRP phantom after the scan with the standard thoracic parameters (110 kV, 20 mA, and 262 mAs), and the conversion coefficient of absolute dose was obtained in a spherical phantom following the TG-61 protocol.The results of Monte Carlo simulation were validated by PDD and Profile in a water phantom and the measurement of the absolute dose in the computed tomography dose index (CTDI) phantom and Alderson phantom.The models including BEIR VⅡ were used to evaluate the radiation risks.Results With reference to the criterion of 3%/1 mm, the uncertainties of PDD and Profile were less than 2%.The difference between the measured and calculated values was<2.9% in the CTDI phantom and ≤0.05 cGy in the Alderson phantom.In the ICRP110 phantom, the doses to the left lung, right lung, left breast, right breast, heart, thyroid, trachea, cancellous bone, and cortical bone were 1.28, 1.39, 1.74, 1.80, 1.46, 0.48, 0.88, 0.85, and 1.84 cGy, respectively.The relative risks of ischemic heart disease, breast cancer, lung cancer, thyroid cancer, and tracheal cancer in a standard scan were1.001 , 1.009, 1.019, 1.000, and 1.008, respectively. Conclusions The accumulated dose and long-term risks of CBCT during image-guided thoracic radiotherapy cannot be neglected and should be effectively controlled.

Objective Knowledge?based radiotherapy ( KBRT ) can reduce the plan quality variability induced by different experiences between physicians and improve the quality of treatment plans. Methods The Varian Rapid Plan system was used to train a dose?volume histogram ( DVH) prediction model. The obtained model was preliminarily applied to semi?automatic design of the preoperative treatment plans for rectal cancer. Eighty high?quality volumetric modulated arc therapy plans were imported into the model training set of the Rapid Plan system. The structures of the plans were matched to the corresponding labels and codes as listed in the library. The training started after the verification of prescription. The residual plots,regression curves,geometric plots for organ at risk ( OAR) ,in?field DVH plots,and model training logs were examined. After removal of the mismatch, the original plans were assessed to rule out outliers and influential data points. More similar plans may be added for another round of training. Ten KBRT plans were designed using the final model and compared with the clinical plans. Results For the two major OARs,the femoral head and bladder,the average goodness of fit of the principal component were 0?999 415/1.0 and 0?999 963/1.0 for the DVH model,and 0?999 651/1.0 and 0?999 945/1.0 for geometry?based expected dose model,respectively. In all the plans, 11 had Cook ’ s distance values exceeding the tolerance and 4 had studentized residual values exceeding the tolerance. The outliers were all kept in the training set to generalize the scope of the model. The 10 KBRT plans had significantly improved homogeneity indices for PGTV and PTV than the original plans (P=0?00,0?04).The 10 KBRT plans also had significantly reduced D50% to the femoral head and bladder as well as significantly reduced mean doses to the bladder than the original plans (P=0?042,0?000,0?005). Conclusions In this study,the Rapid Plan system is used to train a KBRT model for design of preoperative radiotherapy plans for rectal cancer. The results of preliminary application meet the clinical requirements.

Objective To determine the levels of plasma histamine and oxidative status in patients with dermatographism before and after the treatment with anti-histamine drugs. Methods Totally, 85 patients with dermatographism were randomly divided into two groups to receive oral desloratadine and cetirizine respectively for 4 weeks. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the plasma level of histamine, superoxide dismutases (SOD), glutathion peroxidase (GSH-PX) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in all the patients before and after the treatment and in 15 normal human controls. The efficacy of desloratadine and cetirizine for dermatographism was estimated. Results The response rate was 83.72% and 78.57% in patients treated with desloratadine and those with cetirizine, respectively (x2 = 0.369, P> 0.05). The untreated patients with dermatographism showed an elevation in the plasma level of histamine (3.87 ± 1.21 ng/ml vs. 1.76 ± 0.56 ng/ml, P< 0.05) and MDA (3.86 ± 1.03 nmol/ml vs. 2.19 ± 0.82 nmol/ml, P< 0.05), but a decline in the activity of SOD (86.29 ± 19.9 U/ml vs. 112.12 ± 27.88 U/ml, P< 0.05) and GSH-PX (74.52 ± 47.67 vs.915.06 ± 115.96, P< 0.05) compared with the normal human controls. The treatment with antihistamine induced a reduction in the plasma level of histamine (1.61 ± 0.47 ng/ml vs. 3.87 ± 1.21 ng/ml, P< 0.05) and MDA (2.65 ± 0.77 nmol/ml vs. 3.86 ± 1.03 nmol/ml, P< 0.05), but an increment in the activity of GSH-PX (921.46 ± 157.37 vs.74.52 ± 47.67, P < 0.05) with no changes of SOD in patients with dermatographism. Conclusions In patients with dermatographism, plasma histamine is increased and there is an imbalance of oxidation-antioxidation.Desloratadine and cetirizine are effective for the treatment of dermatographism.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and dosimetric features of a volume modulated arc therapy (VMAT)-configured model in knowledge-based optimization of fixed-field dynamic intensitymodulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans based on the Varian RapidPlan system.Methods ① A dose-volume histogram prediction model was trained with 81 qualified preoperative VMAT plans for rectal cancer and then statistically verified.② For clinically approved 10 IMRT plans with the same dose prescription,the above model was used to automatically generate new optimization parameters and dynamic muhileaf collimator (MLC) sequences with field geometry and beam energy unchanged.③ In order to rule out the disparities between different versions,a single algorithm was used to calculate the absolute doses of the original and new plans.④ Statistical analyses were performed on dosimetric parameters after comparable target dose coverage was achieved in the two plans by appropriate normalization.Results On the basis of similar target dose homogeneity and coverage,RapidPlan significantly reduced the doses to the urinary bladder (D50% by 9.01 Gy,P =0.000;Dmean by 8.08 Gy,P =0.005) and the femoral head (D50% by 4.20 Gy,P =0.000;Dmean by 3.84 Gy,P=0.005) but significantly elevated the mean total number of monitor units (1211±99 vs.771±79,P=0.000) and the number of fields with multiple MLC carriage groups.The knowledge-based semi-automated optimization caused a significantly larger number of high-dose hotspots but a similar D2% (52.54 vs.52.71 Gy,P=0.239).Conclusions The VMAT model can be used for the knowledge-based semi-automated optimization of IMRT plans to enhance the efficiency and OAR protection.However,the resulting high-dose hotspots need further manual intervention.
