Ablative 5-Fraction CT vs. MR-Guided Pancreatic SBRT: Evaluation of Interfraction Anatomic Changes on Dosimetric Constraints
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RADIATION ONCOLOGY BIOLOGY PHYSICS(2023)
Abstract
This isthe first evaluation of IAC effects on predicted GI OAR dose for 5-fx CT- vs. MR-guided SBRT. Although VMAT arcs facilitated higher target coverage in the initial CT plans, GI OAR constraint violations were observed in 85-88% of CT/MR plans. Although on-table adaptive replanning is routine on MR-guided Linacs it is not commonly available on CT-guided Linacs. As such, ablative 5-fx SBRT delivered with CT guidance is expected to result in significant toxicity due to exceeding GI OAR constraints for most delivered fractions.
