Title: Local tissue air ratio in an anatomic phantom for 60-Co total body irradiation

Authors:
Vrtar, Mladen (53442)
Purišić, Anka
Journal: Radiotherapy and Oncology
ISSN: 0167-8140
Volume: 21
Year: 1991
Pages: from 157 to 162
Language: engleski
Summary: Tissue Air Ratio (TAR), a basic dosimetric function, is not ideally applicable to all important locations in total body irradiation(TBI) dosimetry because it refers to central ray measurements. We therefore introduced the local TAR which depends on the specific distribution of the scatter centers around the location of interest.Measurements were performed in an anatomic water phantom (made by sculptor) and showed lower values from the standard TARs by a few percent.

Journal: Bone Marrow Transplantation
ISSN: 0268-3369
Volume: 9
Year: 1992
Pages: from 343 to 347
Language: engleski
Summary: Patients with leukaemia (n=64) undergoing BM transplantation were randomized to receive cyclophosphamide (CY) and 60 - Co fractionated (3 fractions) TBI(12 Gy) without lung shielding (n=33, 13.9 Gy) or CY and fraction. TBI with lung shielding (n=31, control g., 10 Gy). Dose rate was 3.6 cGy/min. There was no significant difference in the 3 - year leukaemia free survival (54% vers. 51%) and probability of relapse (22% ver 24%), while interstitial pneumonitis appeared as 15% versus 5% (n=5).

Language: engleski
Summary: From January 1984 122 patienta with de-novo AML who achieved first complete remission were included into a prospective study comparing allogeneic BMT with chemotherapy. Four year probability of leukaemia-free survival for patients receiving marrow graft was 68+-14% while for patients on the chemotherapy were 28+-24% (AML-88) and 21+-18% (AML-83) (p<.01). The probability of leukaemia relapse was significantly higher in the chemotherapy groups than in transplant group (84+-14% for AML-83 and 61+-38% for AML-88 vs 21+-15% for BMT, p<.01).
Keywords: leukaemia, bone marow transplantation, chemotherapy
