Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical radiotherapy, in particular to a method for constructing a mathematical model for predicting absorbed dose to organs at risk in intensity-modulated radiotherapy. Background technique
[0002] Tumor radiotherapy is a local treatment method that uses radiation to treat tumors. It is mainly used for malignant tumors. Statistics show that about 50%-70% of cancer patients need to receive radiation therapy to varying degrees. The basic purpose of radiotherapy is to increase the therapeutic gain ratio of radiotherapy, that is, to maximize the dose of radiation to the target area, kill tumor cells, and reduce or avoid unnecessary irradiation of surrounding normal tissues. Conformal radiation therapy is a more effective physical method to improve the treatment gain ratio. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy, that is, intensity-modulated conformal radiation therapy, is a type of conformal radiation ther...
