Polymer Gel Dosimetry for 90Y SIRT + SBRT Combination Therapy

Learn about advanced dosimetry techniques for combined radiotherapy treatments in this 17-minute invited lecture by Zahra Mansouri from Geneva University Hospital. Explore the application of MAGIC-f polymer gel dosimeters for evaluating end-to-end 3D absorbed dose distribution in combination therapy using Yttrium-90 Selective Internal Radiation Therapy (90Y-SIRT) and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT). Discover how polymer gel dosimetry provides comprehensive three-dimensional dose measurement capabilities for complex treatment scenarios involving both internal radioembolization and external beam radiation. Examine the methodology and findings from recent research that demonstrates the effectiveness of this dosimetric approach in assessing combined treatment modalities. Gain insights into the practical implementation of polymer gel dosimeters for quality assurance and treatment verification in advanced radiation oncology applications, particularly for liver cancer treatments combining internal and external radiation delivery methods.
