Treatment methods for advanced gastric cancer includes haemostatic radiotherapy. The usefulness of additional irradiation when re-bleeding after haemostatic irradiation has been reported. In this study, we examined the irradiation doses to the liver and kidney using partial gastric irradiation of the upper stomach and lower stomach using whole stomach irradiation as a control. Among 20 cases, the whole stomach is set as the target control. Partial stomachs were divided into 2 groups: upper stomach and lower stomach. The dose to each three PTV was set to 20 Gy/5 fractions. Whole liver and bilateral kidneys are organ at risk. The liver D5 [Dx; Dose (Gy) irradiated to x % of liver and bilateral kidney’s volume], D10, D15, D20, D30 and the kidneys D10, D15, D20, D25 were evaluated. The upper stomach was higher than the lower stomach in the high dose range of livers D20, D25, and D30.. Read More»
