Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the traditional brachytherapy system, the three-dimensional dose distribution model constructed is aimed at the unshielded radiation source. Since the radiation source is shielded by the shielding material, the radiation will be absorbed by the shielding material and scattered, etc., and then use the original Some 3D dose distribution models will have large errors in the brachytherapy system, resulting in inaccurate brachytherapy planning. Therefore, it is necessary to construct a new 3D dose based on the new source applicator with shielding materials. distribution model

Abstract

The invention discloses a radiation dose calculating method with an occlusion material. A three-dimensional dose distribution model is established according to the method, and the three-dimensional dose distribution model is used for assisting the establishment of a tumor close range radiotherapy program. The invention provides the radiation dose calculating method which can accurately acquire the radiation dose at any point behind the occlusion material. The radiation dose calculating method with the occlusion material is used to construct the three-dimensional dose contribution distribution model with the occlusion material. The three-dimensional dose contribution distribution model can accurately represent the radiation range and radiation intensity of a radioactive source at the rear of the occlusion material, and can be applied widely. The protection and construction of the three-dimensional dose contribution distribution model with the occlusion material are applied to radiotherapy, which improves the establishment accuracy of the close range program and brings hope to patients treated with a single-tube close range source applicator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of intracavity radiotherapy, in particular to a method for constructing a three-dimensional dose contribution distribution model with shielding materials and its application. Background technique [0002] Radioactivity means that elements spontaneously emit radiation from unstable nuclei (such as alpha rays, beta rays, gamma rays, etc.) and decay to form stable elements and stop emitting (decay products). This phenomenon is called radioactivity. There are many fields where radiation can be applied, such as nuclear power generation in industry, eliminating static electricity, understanding fertilizer absorption and loss of insects in agriculture, archaeology can be used to identify the age of ancient objects, and the most important application is in medicine. Tumor treatment. [0003] Tumor radiotherapy is a local treatment method that uses radiation to treat tumors. It is mainly used for malignant tumors. ...
