This study assesses the feasibility and implementation of respiratory-gated whole-abdominal intensity-modulated radiation therapy (RG-WAIMRT). Three patients were treated with RG-WAIMRT. The planning target volume (PTV1) included the entire peritoneal cavity and a pelvic boost field was created (PTV2). The dose prescribed was 30 Gy to PTV1 and 14.4 Gy to PTV2. For comparison, a conventional three-dimensional (3D) plan was generated for each patient. In the WAIMRT plan, an average of 90% of PTV1 received 30 Gy compared to 70% for the conventional 3D plan. The percent volume receiving 30 Gy (V(30)) for liver averaged 54% (WAIMRT) vs 43% (3D). The percent volume receiving 20 Gy (V(20)) for kidneys averaged 19% vs 0%, and the mean V(20) for bone marrow was 74% vs 83%, respectively. Major acute toxicities were anemia (grade 2: 1/3), leukopenia (grade 3: 2/3 patients), and thrombocytopenia (grade 2: 1/3 patients, grade 3: 1/3 patients). One patient could not complete the whole-abdomen field after 19.5 Gy because of persistent nausea. No major subacute toxicity has been reported. WAIMRT demonstrated superior target coverage and reduced dose to bone marrow, with a slightly increased dose to liver and kidneys. WAIMRT is a novel and feasible technique for ovarian cancer treatment.
