PURPOSE: Implant quality metrics as measured by D90 and V100 do not address the adequacy of periprostatic margins. Relative margin deficiencies may relate to efficacy and margin excesses to post-implant toxicity. Our purpose is to determine MRI-defined treatment margins on prostate achieved with LDR brachytherapy.
METHODS AND MATERIALS: Post implant CT and MR images from 487 consecutive patients who received LDR brachytherapy from 2010 to 14 were co-registered. Four prostate quadrants were defined; anterior-superior (AS), posterior-superior (PS), anterior-inferior (AI), posterior-inferior (PI). Dosimetric variables were measured for prostate, and for each quadrant with a 0-, 2-, 3-, and 5-mm margin, as well as for the membranous urethra defined on MRI.
RESULTS: Prostate D90 (no margin) was associated with D90 to the volume enclosed by 2 mm, 3 mm and 5 mm margins (R2 = 0.9 - 1.0) with an average 7.1% decrease in dose per mm of margin. Mean D90 for PS, AI and PI quadrants were > 110% of prescription dose for margins of 2-, 3-, and 5-mm. AS quadrant mean D90s were generally lower (83.2% for 2 mm, 76.4% for 3 mm and 62.2% for 5 mm). Urethral strictures (n = 9) were associated with higher doses in the AI quadrant, and higher membranous urethral V125 (51 vs. 32%, p 0.013) and V150 (34.5 vs. 17.6%, p 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: Using MR-CT post implant dosimetry, margin coverage up to 5 mm was excellent with less margin coverage in the AS quadrant. Late ≥ grade 2 toxicity and urinary strictures are more likely to occur with relative margin excess in the anterior-inferior quadrant and higher doses caudal to the prostate apex. Within this analysis, there was no relationship between treatment margins, and PSA outcome.
