DOSIMETRY OF TOTAL SKIN ELECTRON IRRADIATION

对皮肤总电子的剂量学进行了详细的研究。 辐射。这项研究量化并改善了整个皮肤 真菌病(MF)患者接受的治疗。治疗方法 技术现已更新，并在新的Clinac 20LINEAR上实施 加速器。 已经开始了一项有选择地局部修改注量率的研究 考虑到手部和脚部的局部更高的剂量率，现在 需要在部分治疗过程中进行繁琐的屏蔽。 在Clinac 20上进行常规的总皮肤电子辐射。 电子注量率分布修正研究项目 一种网格技术的应用取得了积极的成果。实际应用需要一些 进一步的工作。一篇论文正在准备中。与此同时，手套--还有 靴子(对手和脚的保护)已经大大减少了 不舒服，而且更有效。

A detailed study has been made of the dosimetry of total skin electron irradiation. This study has quantified and improved the whole skin treatments received by patients with mycosis fungoides (MF). The treatment technique has now been updated and implemented on the new Clinac 20 linear accelerator. A study has been started to selectively and locally modify the fluence rate to allow for the locally higher dose rates to the hands and feet, which now require cumbersome shielding over part of the treatment course. Total skin electron radiation is given routinely on the Clinac 20. The project directed at modification of electron fluence distribution by means of a grid technique has positive results. Practical application needs some further work. A paper is in preparation. In the meantime, the gloves-and boots (protection of hands and feet) have been made considerably less uncomfortable and more effective.
