摘要


清華大學研究團隊與台北榮民總醫院於2010年開始進行國內硼中子捕獲治療復發性頭頸癌,迄今完成20位病人之照射治療。本研究目的為分析所使用之治療計畫程式THORplan與日本及芬蘭臨床治療使用的SERA治療計畫程式兩者劑量計算結果之差異。 THORplan使用的射源y09其角度分佈有空間依存性,然而SERA無法使用中子群隨空間變化的角度分布之射源,故先採用角度分佈無空間依存性的射源50c進行THORplan與SERA之計算結果的比較。結果顯示,THORplan在腫瘤D80劑量率比SERA多4%,故預估照射時間少4%,正常組織最大劑量率少3%。由於照射時間少4%,THORplan求得正常組織最大劑量比SERA小5%~7%。 將THORplan改用射源y09與SERA搭配射源50c之計算結果作比較。y09射源面積比50c多涵蓋7cm~11cm的半徑範圍,但其超熱中子前向性較差,此二因素影響相消,故改用射源y09對THORplan計算結果影響很小。因此,THORplan與SERA的腫瘤D80點劑量率仍為相差4%,預估照射時間也仍相差4%,正常組織最大劑量相差5%以內。 SERA程式功能限制包括不能使用有外加病人匯聚之治療狀況,計數大小亦有限制,相較於THORplan用於臨床治療有其不便性。

Under the collaboration between National Tsing Hua University(NTHU) and Taipei Veterans General Hospital(TVGH), clinical trial of recurrent head-and-neck cancer by Boron Neutron Capture Therapy(BNCT) started in 2010. Until now 20 patients have been treated. This study is focused on the difference of calculation results between the in-house treatment planning system THORplan and SERA used in Japan and Finland. The source used in THORplan for clinical trial, y09, has space-dependent angular distribution. SERA, however, can not read in source with space-dependent at angular distribution. Therefore, THORplan and SERA were first compared by using Source 50c, a non space-dependent angular dependent neutron source. The results showed that compared with the SERA result, the dose rate calculated by THORplan at Tumor D80 location was higher by 4%, and the normal tissue maximum dose rate were lower by 3%. The estimated irradiation time was shorter by 4%, therefore the normal tissue maximum dose were lower by 5%~7%. When Source 50c was replaced by Source y09 in THORplan calculation, no significant difference was found. The difference of estimated irradiation time between THORplan and SERA remained within 4% and the normal tissue maximum dose were within 5%. Compared with THORplan, the major disadvantage of SERA is unable to simulate the treatment planning condition using patient collimator.
