ABSTRACT

Objective To conduct the 7th investigation by Chinese Society of Radiation Oncology,Chinese Medical Association,and to further investigate the current situation of radiotherapy in mainland China,reasonably allocate personnel and equipment resources,and promote the development of radiotherapy in China.Methods From October 8,2015 to December 2015,the office for investigation of radiotherapy information was established,the list and contact information of radiotherapy units were provided by each province,and a special data submission system was used for a complete,rapid,and efficient investigation through the Internet.Results As of January 20,2016,there were 1 413 radiotherapy units in the mainland China with 52,496 employees in total,among which there were 15 839 radiotherapy physicians (4824 with senior professional titles),8 452 technical therapists (260 with senior professional titles),3 292 physicists (562 with senior professional titles),and 938 maintenance engineers (120 with senior professional titles).In the aspect of radiotherapy equipment,there were 1930 linear accelerators,96 Co-60 teletherapy units,173 X-knife units,212 γ-knife units,382 Ir-192 brachytherapy units,436 Co-60 brachytherapy units,1 051 X-ray simulators,1 353 CT simulators,642 MRI simulators,978 sets of multileaf collimators,1922 sets of treatment planning systems,and 974 sets of radiotherapy network systems.As for quality control devices,there were 1 792 dosimeters,2 143 ionization chambers,935 two-dimensional array dosimeters,540 threedimensional dosimetric verification systems,596 three-dimensional water tanks,844 anthropomorphic phantoms,and 1 168 water equivalent phantoms.In the aspect of therapeutic situation,there were 102,170 beds (including beds in departments of oncology in general hospitals),76612 episodes per day,and 919339 episodes per year.Conclusions The results of this investigation show significant increases in radiotherapy units,personnel,and equipment in recent years in mainland China.The distribution of radiotherapy units and equipment and the structure of radiotherapy personnel are becoming more reasonable,but there are still some problems.In some regions,current radiotherapy equipment cannot meet the medical needs,and there is a lack of professional technical personnel.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate influence on dose distribution due to cavity and inhomogeneous structures using thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) and Chengdu phantoms.Methods A cavity 4 cm × 4 cm × 3 cm was made by a head and neck phantom and a lung phantom was cut into slices which were got a CT scanning and setup in a digital simulator.The TLD were pasted on edge and in the center of cavity structure and inhomogeneous structures.Treatment plans of different radiotherapy technologies were made generated and delivered on a linear accelerator.Then the TLD were read and analyzed.Results There were remarkable cavity effects of conventional single field,opposite fields and IMRT plans with 7 fields for head and neck phantom.There is similar effect in lung phantom.The more complexity the radiotherapy technology was the less cavity effect.Conclusions It is necessary to consider using more advanced radiotherapy technology or applying more fields to make treatment plans in order to decrease the cavity effect or similar effect when there are inhomogeneous structures.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of various deco cting times,and frequencies on the main active components of Radix et Rhizoma Rh ei and Rhizoma Coptidis decocting together so as to determine the best extractin g technology.Methods:Orthogonal method was used to screen the extracting techno logy and TLC scanning to determine the content of main active components. Conclu sion: Proper decocting frequency and adding water volume will increase the yield of the main active components.
