RESUMO

@#Abstract: Objective ( ) To evaluate the internal exposure levels and risk in nuclear medicine workers NMWs engaged in Methods radionuclide therapy in Guangdong Province. A total of 61 NMWs from eight hospitals in Guangdong Province were selected as the study subjects using the convenient sampling method. The 0.364 MeV full energy peak efficiency was detected in ( ) in vitro , - deltoid muscle of right upper arm as background and thyroid gland by direct measurement method and the iodine 131 (131 ) Results ,131 I activity in thyroid gland was calculated to evaluate the internal irradiation level. Among the 61 NMWs I was , detected in the thyroid gland of four nuclear medical staffs in three hospitals and the detection rate was 6.6%. The median and - [M( P-P )] 131 ( - ) 0 100 percentile 0 100 of thyroid I activity were 42.9 35.1 47.1 Bq. When assuming that the monitoring period was , M( P-P ) ( - ) , 30 days the 0 100 of single committed effective dose in thyroid gland was 0.014 0.011 0.015 mSv and the annual dose ( - ) Conclusion of internal irradiation was 0.162 0.132 0.180 mSv/a. The internal exposure of NMWs in the eight hospitals in ( ) , Guangdong Province meets the annual effective dose limits ≤20.000 mSv/a . However it is necessary to pay attention to the internal radiation protection of NMWs and take reasonable protective measures to reduce the internal exposure risk of NMWs.

RESUMO

Objective:To explore the assessment methodology for internal dose to workers exposed to 131I radionuclide. Methods:Workers were chosen in a 131I radiopharmaceutial manufacturer and a nuclear medicine department in a hospital using 131I to treat hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer. A portable high purity germanium (HPGe) gamma spectrometer was used to measure the content of 131I in the thyroid for 4 consecutive times in a period of 7 d. The internal dose was estimated combining with the work rotation mode for workers dealing with 131I. Results:When the monitoring month was used as a typical month to estimate the internal dose, the annual committed effective dose was 0.09-1.93 mSv for the production staff engaged in the repackaging of 131I radiopharmaceuticals in the surveyed enterprise, and 0.06-0.58 mSv for the nuclear medicine staff in the surveyed hospital. After adjusting the monitoring result of the current monitoring period based on the rotation mode, the annual committed effective dose was estimated to be 0.06-1.22 mSv for radiopharmaceutical production workers and 0.03-0.15 mSv for nuclear medicine workers, respectively. Conclusions:In the assessment of internal dose to radiation workers exposed to 131I, using a single time measurement result to estimate the annual dose would lead to a larger error. In the case of continuous monitoring, the result of subsequent monitoring periods should be corrected according to the result of previous monitoring periods. In order to accurately estimate the internal dose of workers exposed to 131I, it is necessary to take full account of the 131I exposure pattern, time and frequency and the internal contamination route. For workers who may be exposed to 131I with potential internal dose greater than 1 mSv/year, a 14 day-routine monitoring period was appropriate.

RESUMO

Objective@#To analyze the patient-specific dosimetric verification result of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) plans, and to investigate the sensitivity of the result to three factors: interpolation of measured data, size of dose calculation grid and assessment threshold.@*Methods@#The dosimetric verification results of SBRT plans of 50 patients were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the impact of the following factors. The linear interpolation (1.00 mm) and non-interpolation (7.62 mm) were applied to measured data respectively. Three dose calculation grid sizes of Eclipse planning system, i. e., 1.0 mm, 2.5 mm and 4.0 mm were compared respectively. The threshold of dose assessment was selected as 10%, 20% and 30%, respectively. Three criteria of γ analysis were selected: 2%/2 mm, 3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm.@*Results@#Under criteria of 2%/2 mm, 3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm, the average γ passing rates were (86.3±7.3)% and (93.7±5.6)%, (94.1±4.4)% and(97.7±3.9)%, (97.7 ±2.2)% and (99.1±1.7)%, respectively, with and without linear interpolation. Relative to the 1.0 mm reference grid, the grids of 2.5 mm and 4.0 mm significantly decreased γ passing rates by 3.8%, 1.9%, 0.8% (t=8.41, 9.06, 5.30, P<0.05) and by 6.5%, 6.0%, 3.5% (t=-13.76, -13.15, -9.80, P<0.05) under criteria of 2%/2 mm, 3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm, respectively. Relative to the 10% reference threshold, the shresholds of 20% and 30% significantly decreased γ passing rates by 2.4%, 1.0%, 0.6%(t=-8.60, -5.86, -4.68, P<0.05) and by 4.0%, 1.7%, 0.9% (t=-9.45, -6.66, -5.06, P<0.05) under criteria of 2%/2 mm, 3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm, respectively.@*Conclusions@#Interpolation, dose calculation grid size and dose assessment threshold are influential factors of dose verification result, and need to be considered during dosimetric verification of stereotactic radiotherapy patients.

RESUMO

Objective@#To investigate the changes of accumulated dose in target area and organs at risk (OARs) for radiotherapy of left breast cancer by deformable and rigid image registration.@*Methods@#A total of 16 left breast cancer patients treated with 6 MV X-ray IMRT were analyzed retrospectively. All targets included the lymph node drainage area and the chest wall. All patients underwent simulation of the primary positioning and repositioning to obtain CT images. Primary and secondary treatment plans were developed using primary positioning CT (CT1) and repositioning CT (CT2), denoted as Plan1 and Plan2 respectively. The dose distribution of Plan2 was mapped to CT1 with rigid and deformable registration from CT2 to CT1 and then added to the dose distribution of Plan1 to obtain Plan-rigid and Plan-deform, respectively. The dosimetric differences between targets and the OARs of the four plans were compared.@*Results@#The CTV volume on CT2 was reduced by 6.64% from that on CT1. The homogeneity index (HI) increased by 23.05% after deformation-based accumulation. The Dice similarity coefficients (DSCs) of the heart, left lung and right lung were lower than those before deformable registration (0.94±0.01 vs. 0.89±0.05, 0.96±0.01 vs. 0.91±0.03, and 0.96±0.01 vs. 0.92±0.03, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant (Z=-3.208, -3.533, -3.535, P<0.05). There were no significant differences in dose-volume indices of heart and left lung between Plan1 with other plans(P>0.05), while the dose-volume indices in Plan-rigid were higher than that in Plan-deform.@*Conclusions@#Rigid registration is recommended in patients undergoing radical resection of left breast cancer with little change in the volume and dose-volume index of the target area and organs at risk. The dose-volume index of the initial intensity modulation plan can basically reflect the dose-volume statistics of both lungs and heart.

RESUMO

Objective To establish an accuracy test method for MDCT dose assessment based on information in DICOM images.Methods The type of MDCT studied in this paper was widely used in clinical practice.A software package developed by java language was used to automatically read doserelated information from DICOM files of MDCT.The CTDIvol and DLP of each pectoral or abdominal scan was calculated based on these information and the basic scan parameters such as collimation,mAs and pitch.The calculated values were compared with the displayed values.Results For pectoral scans,the difference between the calculated and displayed values was between-2%-8% for CTDIvol,and-2%-5% for DLP.For abdominal scan,the difference between the calculated and displayed values was 0-2% for CTDIvol,and-2%-3% for DLP.Conclusions This method is useful for MDCT dose assessment and is worth disseminating its application for general use.
