摘要

Background and purpose In radiotherapy (RT) of prostate cancer the key organs at risk (ORs) - the rectum and the bladder - display considerable motion, which may influence the dose/volume parameters predicting for morbidity. In this study we compare motion-inclusive doses to planned doses for the rectum and bladder and explore their associations with prospectively recorded morbidity. Materials and methods The study included 38 prostate cancer patients treated with hypo-fractionated image-guided intensity-modulated RT that had an average of nine repeat CT scans acquired during treatment. These scans were registered to the respective treatment planning CT (pCT) followed by a new dose calculation from which motion-inclusive dose distributions were derived. The pCT volumes, the treatment course averaged volumes as well as the planned and motion-inclusive doses were associated with acute and late morbidity (morbidity cut-off: ≥Grade 2). Results Acute rectal morbidity (observed in 29% of cases) was significantly associated with both smaller treatment course averaged rectal volumes (population median: 75 vs. 94 cm3) and the motion-inclusive volume receiving doses close to the prescription dose (2 Gy-equivalent dose of 76 Gy). Conclusion Variation in rectum and bladder volumes leads to deviations between planned and delivered dose/volume parameters that should be accounted for to improve the ability to predict morbidity following RT.
