Radiotherapy treatment planning for patients fitted with prostheses.

F R Hudson, M T Crawley, M Samarasekera.   

Abstract

The effects of prostheses on radiotherapy treatment planning are discussed. The compositions of commonly used materials are tabulated. Sample plots show the size of perturbations produced by typical absorbers at 8 MV. A technique for estimating the density of a prosthesis in a patient is demonstrated and the effects of prostheses on representative radiotherapy plans are illustrated.
