Introduction to Radiation Therapy History 1895 Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen -Diagnosis &Therapeutic purposes 1902 Radiation induced cancer was reported 1903 suggestion to treat cancer w implanting radium 1930 Initial clinical use of radiation dose fractionation 1972 Computed Tomography and Radiation therapy 1990 3D setting w tumor hypoxia and the tumor environment 1994 Am College of Veterinary Radiology 2009 -Currently about 70 board-certified veterinary radiation oncologists -Residency programs in USA -Veterinary Technicians (Barbara Kaser- Hotz. ,36thWSAVA 2011) (Elizabeth McNiel.,29th Annual conference of the VCS 2009)
What is the Radiation Therapy รังสีที่ใช้รักษาได้แก่ รังสีเอกซ์ รังสีแกมมา นิวตรอน และพวกอนุภาคต่างๆ ส่วนใหญ่แล้วมักนิยม ใช้รังสีแกมมาจากเครื่องโคบอลต์-60 รังสีเอกซ์พลังงานสูง จากเครื่องเร่งอนุภาค และนิยมใช้อนุภาคอิเล็กตรอน รักษาบริเวณพื้นผิวตื้น ๆ การเลือกชนิดและพลังงาน ของรังสีรักษา ต้องพิจารณาลักษณะรูปร่าง ตลอดจนตำแหน่งที่ตั้งของก้อนมะเร็ง
Types of radiation • 1. Electromagnetic Radiation • 1.1รังสีเอกซ์ (x-rays) source : high energy x-ray equipments • 1.2รังสีแกมมา (gamma-rays) :radioactive isotopes nucleus • 2. Particle Radiation:Linear Accelerator • 2.1 อนุภาคอิเล็กตรอน (Electrons) • 2.2 อนุภาคอื่น ๆ เช่น โปรตรอน(Photons)
Radiation therapy and Biological response of tumor and normal tissue Relative radiosensitivity of common animal tumours Relative radiosensitivity of normal animal tissue
How radiation dose is measured? The Absorbed dose :Gray(Gy)= SI unit 1Gray(Gy)=1joule(j) of energy absorbed by 1 kg tissue 1Gray(Gy)=100 Rad 1Rad =100ergs/g 1 Fraction =Individual radiation treatment dose Total dose= Fraction X Time of RT treatment.
Principles of Radiation Oncology The concept of therapeutic ratio for radiation therapy
Principles of Radiation Oncology The concept of therapeutic ratio for radiation therapy Ideal X O Radiosensitive tumor Radioresistant tumor Limited sensitive tumor
Fractionation Details Treatment procedure 1.Total dose (Gy) 2.Fraction size (Gy) 3.Duration of Tx.
Fractionation effect Exponential tumor cell killing by radiation
Fraction ation and Tumor biology 4R’s radiobiology 1.Repair 2.Repopulation 3.Redistribution 4.Reoxygenation
Radiation therapy Types of Radiation Therapy 1. Teletherapy orExternal beam therapy 2.Plesiotherapy orBrachytherapy 3. Unsealed source therapy or Nuclear medicine
1.Teletherapy orExternal beam therapy Model Linac Linear Accelerator (4-20MeV)
Different types of animal immobilization Stand Mask
Different type of animal immobilization Tooth block Cat and tooth block
Different type of animal immobilization Position of dog during RT Dog and tooth block
Different types of animal immobilization Vacuum bag Animal immobilization
Radiotherapy treatment planning 1.Measures of tumor volume CT scan • Equipment • CT or MRI • X-rays

Radiation therapy:Beam control Multileaf collimator Other devices
Radiation Therapy Dog and oronasal mass: canine oral melanoma multiple fields RT
Radiation therapy Cat : CT scan for RT preparation Cat with nasal lymphoma
2.Plesiotherapy orBrachytherapy Iridium-192 Strontium-90
Common radiation therapy side effects Acute side effects Delay side effects
Common radiation therapy side effects Acute moist desquamation Delay effect :Depigmentation
Radiation Therapy in Veterinary Medicine 1.Radiation therapy alone • Curative Treatment • Local and small tumor size • Almost radiosensitive tumor types • Palliative Treatment • Reduce cancer pain • Destroy cutaneous metastasis tumor • Slowly tumor growth rate
Combined Radiation with Other modalities 1. Combined Radiationand Surgery 2.Combined Radiation and Systemic therapy Preoperative irradiation Intraoperative irradiation Postoperative irradiation • Chemotherapy: • Synergistically improve • Doxorubicin • Carboplatin • Gemcitabine • Paclitaxel are all shown to improve the effects of radiation • Adjuvant chemotherapy • Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy • Immunotherapy • Melanoma vaccine
Radiation Therapy in Veterinary Medicine Weak point
Future Direction of Radiation Therapy IMRT : Intensity modulated RT Rapid Arc : 4D RT
