Abstract

Background: 3D conformal radiotherapy 3DCRT technique are used to treat patients with brain cancer. Goal: this study aims to compare conformity and homogeneity indices for eight patients of brain cancer by using three-dimension conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) technique on planning target volume (PTV) located in brain. Methods: Comparative study of Conformity and Homogeneity indices for ten brain cancer patients during period from October 2019 to March 2020 that carried out at ZCC (Zhianawa Cancer Center) in Sulaimany-Iraq. 3DECRT technique was applied to get the heist dosage to the target volume (tumor) and lowest dose to the healthy structures around the tumor. By using Linear Accelerator machine- LINAC, Elekta synergy type with 6MV photon beam. SPSS-version 22 was applied for analyzing and caring out the data measurements
