При этом важным условием выполнения принципа обоснования является неукоснительное соблюдение требований к точности доставляемой дозы. Гарантией выполнения стандартов лечения является разработка и соблюдение в радиологическом отделении программы контроля качества. Однако, в силу своей специфики, стандартизированные и применяемые во всем мире тесты, входящие в системы менеджмента качества, представляют собой тривиальные механические и дозиметрические проверки, которые не могут показать наличие и величину интегральной ошибки в процессе доставки дозы пациенту, которая возникает в результате осуществления мероприятий всей технологической цепочки лучевой терапии, а также учесть сложность реализации современных методов лечения. Целью данной работы являлась разработка методики комплексного дозиметрического тестирования технологического процесса лучевой терапии (end-to-end тестирование), базирующейся на использовании антропоморфного фантома оригинальной конструкции. Результатом данной работы стало создание модифицированного для прецизионных дозиметрических измерений антропоморфного фантома, предназначенного для тестирования следующих технологических узлов процесса лучевой терапии: компьютерного томографа; компьютерной системы дозиметрического планирования облучения, включая модуль контурирования и алгоритмы расчета дозового распределения; систем визуализации на лечебных аппаратах; дозиметрических и технических характеристик лечебных аппаратов. Регулярное проведение дозиметрического комплексного тестирования технологического процесса лучевой терапии (end-to-end тестирование) с использованием предложенной авторами методики, базирующейся на использовании разработанного антропоморфного фантома оригинальной конструкции, позволит провести оценку точности доставки дозового распределения для онкологических пациентов с различными локализациями злокачественных новообразований.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The rapid development of technologies in the field of radiation therapy allows us nowadays to implement precision and most clinically effective radiotherapy techniques for oncological patient’s treatment to minimize the irradiation of normal tissues and improve local tumor control. An important condition for the implementation of the justification principle is strict compliance with the requirements for the accuracy of the dose delivered. High standards of radiation treatments performed are guaranteed by the development and strict compliance with the quality assurance (QA) program in the radiological department. However, due to QA programmes specificity, standardized and worldwide used tests included in the quality management system are trivial mechanical and dosimetric tests that can’t define the presence and magnitude of the integral error in the dose delivered to the patient, which arises as a result of the execution of sophisticated radiation therapy procedures, as well as to take into account the complexity of the implementation of modern methods of treatment. The aim of the work is to develop a method of complex dosimetric testing of the radiation therapy process (end-to-end audit), based on the utilization of the anthropomorphic phantom of the original design. The result of this work is the creation of the modified anthropomorphic phantom for precision dosimetric measurements, designed for testing the following technological procedures of the radiation therapy process: a computer tomography acquisition; a computerized treatment planning system, including a contouring module and dose distribution calculation algorithm; imaging systems integrated with radiation treatment units; dosimetric and technical characteristics of the radiation treatment units. Regular dosimetric testing of the radiation therapy technological process (end-to-end audit) with utilization of the technique proposed by the authors, based on the developed anthropomorphic phantom usage, will allow to assess the accuracy of dose distribution delivered to patients with all major malignant tumors localizations.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>контроль качества</kwd><kwd>менеджмент качества</kwd><kwd>клиническая дозиметрия</kwd><kwd>фантом Алдерсона</kwd><kwd>антропоморфный фантом</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>quality control</kwd><kwd>quality assurance</kwd><kwd>clinical dosimetry</kwd><kwd>anthropomorphic phantom</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Hasan Murshed.
