目的:詳細討論何杰金氏病放射治療方法與劑量計算過程,並討論其臨床上實用性。 材料與方法:針對本院-18歲何杰金氏病男性病人,討論斗蓬照野、倒Y型照野Clarkson劑量計算方法,並利用治療計盡做追加照射(boost)劑量推定,及估算兩照野間距若干。 計論:劑量計算之誤差主要來自體表不平整性,誤差約6%。而斗蓬照野中之肺與其他組織之均勻性,由於肺部經給檔塊遮檔,對於照野範圍內之劑量計算不造成任何影響。體表肋骨之影響,誤差在1%以內,可以忽略。 結論:Clarkson 方法為計算不規則照野劑量之可行方法,唯其費時費力,故電腦化或製作換算樣版以提高臨床實用性是必須的。
Purpose: Discussing the dose evaluation process for Hodgkin's disease radiotherapy and the clinical practice. Materials and Methods: Using the Clarkson's method to evaluate mantle and inverse Y fields dosimetry for a eighteen-year-old Hodgkin's disease patient in our hospital, and estimate the boost dose from treatment planning, otherwise, calculate the gap between two adjacent fields. Discussion: The main error of dose evaluation came from the non-flatteness of body, which up to 6%. Since lung was blocked, the inhomogeneity between lung and adjacent tissue in the mantle field caused on effect to dose evaluation. The rib's effect which within 1% is negligible. Conclusion: Clarkson's method is a useful way to evaluate the dose of irregular fields, but it is time wasting and laborious. Computerization or equivalent squares template may be applied to increase clinical practice.
