| Abstract | Objective To compare intensity reduction plans for liver cancer with or without a magnetic field and optimize field and subfield numbers in the intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans designed for liver masses in different regions. Methods This retrospective study included 62 patients who received radiotherapy for liver cancer at Shandong Cancer Hospital. Based on each patient's original individualized intensity-modulated plan (plan1.5 T), a magnetic field-free plan (plan0 T) and static intensity-modulated plan with four different optimization schemes were redesigned for each patient. The differences in dosimetric parameters among plans were compared. Results In the absence of a magnetic field in the first quadrant, PTV Dmin increased (97.75 ± 17.55 vs. 100.96 ± 22.78)%, Dmax decreased (121.48 ± 29.68 vs. 119.06 ± 28.52)%, D98 increased (101.35 ± 7.42 vs. 109.35 ± 26.52)% and HI decreased (1.14 ± 0.14 vs. 1.05 ± 0.01). In the absence of a magnetic field in the second quadrant, PTV Dmin increased (84.33 ± 19.74 vs. 89.96 ± 21.23)%, Dmax decreased (105 ± 25.08 vs. 104.05 ± 24.86)%, and HI decreased (1.04 ± 0.25 vs. 0.99 ± 0.24). In the absence of a magnetic field in the third quadrant, PTV Dmax decreased (110.21 ± 2.22 vs. 102.31 ± 26)%, L-P V30 decreased (10.66 ± 9.19 vs. 5.81 ± 3.22)%, HI decreased (1.09 ± 0.02 vs. 0.98 ± 0.25), and PTV Dmin decreased (92.12 ± 4.92 vs. 89.1 ± 22.35)%. In the absence of a magnetic field in the fourth quadrant, PTV Dmin increased (89.78 ± 6.72 vs. 93.04 ± 4.86)%, HI decreased (1.09 ± 0.01 vs. 1.05 ± 0.01) and D98 increased (99.82 ± 0.82 vs. 100.54 ± 0.84)%. These were all significant differences. In designing plans for tumors in each liver region, a total number of subfields in the first area of 60, total subfields in the second zone of 80, and total subfields in the third and fourth zones of 60 or 80 can achieve the dose effect without a magnetic field. Conclusion In patients with liver cancer, the effect of a magnetic field on the target dose is more significant than that on doses to organs at risk. By controlling the max total number of subfields in different quadrants, the effect of the magnetic field can be greatly reduced or even eliminated. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
