ABSTRACT
Some patients who have neck tumor but cannot tolerate the thermoplastic immobilization may be supported by simple cushions, and are marked on the neck skin during CT simulation. We therefore set 5 mm as the spinal cord-planning risk volume margin in the intensity-modulated radiotherapy plans in our Centre. Cone beam CT (CBCT) scans were acquired for three times, and matched with the simulation CT images in each radiotherapy. The mean and the standard deviation of the individual, the root mean-square and the standard deviation of the individual were calculated. The matched results of the third CBCT were used to calculate the spinal cord- planning risk volume margin. The results showed that the interfraction error was significantly reduced and the intrafraction error was stable by CBCT guiding. CBCT and 5 mm spinal cord-planning organ is feasible and safe without threatening volume margin to high dose radiotherapy for the patients with neck tumor and not able to tolerate thermoplastic immobilization.
