Abstract
To characterize the dosimetric impact of using different sizes of spherical applicators in Intrabeam™ Intraoperative Radiation Therapy (IB-IORT) to treat unicentric cancer lesions after breast-conserving lumpectomy. Using the commissioned depth dose rates, the three-dimensional dosages of the 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 cm spherical applicators of the IB-IORT PRS400 machine were established. Five different cancer cell infiltration depths of unicentric breast lesions were formulated by a linearly declining cancer cell density distribution from the surgical surface. The equivalent uniform dose (EUD), which is the dosage of a homogeneous dose treatment for killing the same amount of cancer cells as IB-IORT in the same target volume, was then calculated using the modified linear quadratic model (MLQ). The radiobiological response of two types of cancer cell lines and three types of normal tissues in the TARGIT-A clinical trial of 20 Gy dose was estimated. The study was carried out for an acutely responding breast cancer cell line with an α/β ratio of 10 and a slow responding breast cancer cell line with an α/β ratio of 3.85, respectively. The cancer cell density at the surgical excision surface was assumed to be 0.01%, 0.1%, 1%, and 10%...Continue Reading
