Impact of Optimization Resolution and Dose Calculation Grid Size in Small-Field Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy Using Flattening-Filter-Free Beams for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

MTMoorthi ThirunavukkarasuDKDavid Khanna KhannaKBKarunakaran Balaji

Key Points

  • To evaluate the effects of optimization resolution and dose calculation grid size on liver SBRT outcomes.
  • Analyzed different optimization resolutions (1.25 mm and 2.5 mm) for dose calculations.
  • Prioritized organs at risk during the analysis.
  • Used 10X-FFF beams specifically for hepatocellular carcinoma.
  • 1.25 mm resolution is better when critical organs are prioritized.
  • 2.5 mm resolution is optimal for general liver SBRT without prioritization.

Abstract

The 1.25 mm resolution for both optimization and calculation was found to be better if the critical organs are in prioritized; otherwise, the 2.5 mm resolution setting is the optimal choice for liver SBRT using the 10X-FFF beam.
