PG - 20190692 LID - 10.1259/bjr.20190692 [doi] LID - 20190692 AB - OBJECTIVE: The internal target volume (ITV) strategy generates larger planning target volumes (PTVs) in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) than the Mid-position (Mid-p) strategy. We investigated the benefit of the Mid-p strategy regarding PTV reduction and dose to the organs at risk (OARs). METHODS: 44 patients with LA-NSCLC were included in a randomized clinical study to compare ITV and Mid-p strategies. GTV were delineated by a physician on maximum intensity projection images and on Mid-p images from four-dimensional CTs. CTVs were obtained by adding 6 mm uniform margin for microscopic extension. CTV to PTV margins were calculated using the van Herk's recipe for setup and delineation errors. For the Mid-p strategy, the mean target motion amplitude was added as a random error. For both strategies, three-dimensional conformal plans delivering 60-66 Gy to PTV were performed. PTVs, dose-volume parameters for OARs (lung, esophagus, heart, spinal cord) were reported and compared. RESULTS: With the Mid-p strategy, the median of volume reduction was 23.5 cm(3) (p = 0.012) and 8.8 cm(3) (p = 0.0083) for PTV(T) and PTV(N) respectively; the median mean lung dose reduction was 0.51 Gy (p = 0.0057). For 37.1% of the patients, delineation errors led to smaller PTV with the ITV strategy than with the Mid-p strategy. CONCLUSION: PTV and mean lung dose were significantly reduced using the Mid-p strategy. Delineation uncertainty can unfavorably impact the advantage. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first dosimetric comparison study between ITV and Mid-p strategies for LA-NSCLC.
