Brief Summary: Radiation-induced temporal lobe injury (TLI) is usually devastating to patients; however, there is a poor understanding of TLI in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients treated with IMRT. Knowledge of the dose tolerance of the TL is essential, in order to predict the safety of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) treatment plans. In our previous studies, D1cc (the dose to 1ml of the TL volume) and Dmax (the maximum point dose) were the significant predictors of TLI development. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of dose constraints based on D1cc and Dmax for the temporal lobes following IMRT for NPC.
Detailed Description: The prescribe dose was 66-70Gy to the PTV of the GTVnx, 60Gy to the PTV of CTV1(i.e., high-risk regions),54-56Gy to the PTV of CTV2(i.e., low-risk regions),and 64-66Gy to the PTV of the GTVnd for the metastatic cervical lymph nodes in 30-33 fractions. For the GTV and CTV, the target volumes that received more than 95% of the prescribed dose was used to reflect the target coverage. Subdivision of the PTVnx into regions with different prescribed absorbed doses (PTVsv1,PTVsv2, PTVsv2 is the overlaps between PTVnx and temporal lobe) can be used in cases for which the PTVnx overlaps temporal lobe. When the volume of PTVsv2 is less than 0.2 cubic centimeter (cc), the prescribe dose for PTVsv2 is as the same as that of the PTVsv1, D1cc 63.1Gy, Dmax 72.9Gy for TL (32 fractions). When the volume of PTVsv2 is between 0.2 cc and 0.5cc, the prescribe dose for PTVsv2 is 66Gy, D1cc 63.1Gy, Dmax 72.9Gy for TL (32 fractions). When the volume of PTVsv2 is between 0.5 cc and 1cc, the prescribe dose for PTVsv2 is 66Gy, D1cc 65.8Gy, Dmax 75.2Gy for TL (32 fractions).
