PURPOSE: This work examines the dosimetric performance of two algorithms creating a corrected CBCT (corrCBCT) and a virtual CT (vCT) implemented in a commercial treatment planning system.
METHODS: 60 patients distributed across all patient groups treated with curative intent at Vejle Hospital (breast, lung, prostate and anal/rectal cancer) were selected for the present study. Clinical treatment plans were recalculated on corrCBCT and vCT, as well as a reference CT (refCT) acquired as close in time to the CBCT image as possible. Recalculated doses were compared using gamma analysis, as well as by comparing D98%, D50%, and D2% for all delineated targets and organs at risk.
RESULTS: High dosimetric accuracy is demonstrated on both the corrCBCT and vCT. Gamma 2%/2mm pass rates >98% were found for all patients except two outliers still having >93% pass rates. Equivalence of all evaluated dose metrics within ±1Gy was observed for all patient groups, while the pelvic patients additionally showed equivalence for all metrics within ±1% of the refCT dose. For the thoracic patients, equivalence within ±2.5% was established for all metrics except median dose to the ipsilateral lung, calculated on corrCBCT for the breast patient group.
CONCLUSION: The corrCBCT and vCT images are shown in excellent dosimetric agreement with refCT images, and show high potential for future use for streamlined adaptive radiotherapy workflows.
