Abstract

In conformation therapy, the shape and size of a field is not constant but changed during the source rotation. For calculating dose distribution of conformation radiotherapy, the software of commercial computer for radiation treatment planning (MODULEX) was modified and expanded to the conformation treatment planning system. The system was designed to allow to input data necessitated for the dose distribution in conformation therapy ; e.g. Solutions to Tissue Maximum Ratio and Off Axis Ratio in the asymmetric irregular field in any source rotation angle. The entry of various parameters and the operation of this system is almost the same as current treatment planning system, it is easy and simple to utilize routine work. In this paper, the modified and extended programs for calculation of conformation dose distribution were described.
