Objetivo
Este trabalho apresenta uma revisão bibliográfica
sobre a determinação da importância do
replaneamento em doentes com cancro da mama
submetidos a radioterapia com a técnica de IMRT.
Metodologia
Foi realizada uma ampla pesquisa em plataformas
científicas como a Pubmed, Researchgate,
ScienceDirect e diversos jornais científicos: The
Breast, Radiotherapy and Oncology, The International
Journal of Radiation Oncology e Medical Dosimetry
num espaço temporal desde novembro de 2004
a março de 2018. A informação recolhida foi
considerada se estudasse as alterações volumétricas
do volume do boost (BTV) entre a Tomografia
Computorizada (TC) de planeamento inicial e a TC de
replaneamento.
Resultados
O volume do boost apresenta alterações entre as
fases do tratamento de radioterapia com a técnica
de IMRT, com especial ênfase em doentes que
apresentam edema ou grandes volumes mamários
durante o tratamento de radioterapia. Verificou-se
também que, as alterações do BTV poderão implicar
um acréscimo de dose na mama ipsilateral.
Conclusões
É aconselhado um replaneamento entre a primeira
e a segunda fase de tratamento em doentes com
cancro de mama submetidos a radioterapia com
IMRT.
ABSTRACT: Purpose This is a literature review on the importance of replanning in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy with the IMRT technique. Methods Extensive research was conducted on scientific platforms such as Pubmed, Researchgate, ScienceDirect and several scientific journals: The Breast, Radiotherapy and Oncology, The International Journal of Radiation Oncology and Medical Dosimetry in a temporal space from November 2004 to March 2018. The information collected was considered the volumetric changes of the boost target volume (BTV) between initial planning Computed Tomography (CT) and replanning CT. Results The volume of the boost presents alterations between phases of treatment with the IMRT technique, patients with edema or large breast volumes during treatment. It has also been shown that changes in BTV may an increase dose in ipsilateral breast. Conclusion A replanning between the first and second phase of treatment is advised in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy with IMRT technique.
