초록
The purpose of this study was to improve the unstable treatment posture by placing the Carbon fabric blanket on the couch which was used for the patient fixation for the unstable posture from the severe pain caused by the neuromuscular pressure of the spinal metastatic cancer patient and to analyze the dose difference caused by the energy loss of high energy radiation. Using a linear accelerator, a FC-65G was installed at a depth of 5 cm at a solid phantom at 6 MV and 10 MV energies. The SAD was 100 cm, Gantry angle was 0°, a Cotton and Carbon blanket with a thickness of 1 cm on the couch, The blankets were placed on the couch and the dose was measured according to field size. For the dose measurement, and the dose was measured at 100 MU each time, and the mean value was calculated by repeating the measurement three times in order to reduce the error. The results showed that the difference rate in dose between Carbon blanket and Cotton blanket was respectively -0.54% and –0.75% based on the absence of the blanket(Non). Therefore, it is considered that the use of Carbon fabric blanket, which reduces the patient's pain and does not affect the depth dose, may be useful during radiation therapy of the spine metastasis cancer.
