![]() ![]() A total of 27 patients who could not tolerate the GTC frame were treated using the GLAD-X/LS system. A simulated treatment course consisting of 5 stereotactic radiotherapy fractions (300 cGy, 30 mm collimator) was delivered to the phantom head. An ion chamber and thermoluminescence dosimetric chips (TLDs) were implanted in the target. A target volume of 2 x 2 x 2 cm was drilled into the phantom head. We investigated the commissioning and clinical benefits of the GLAD-X/LS for fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) in patients who were unable to tolerate the Gill-Thomas-Cosman (GTC) frame.Ĭommissioning of the GLAD-X/LS system was done via use of a Rando Phantom. ![]() Thus it permits treatment planning to be accomplished by the Radionics X-knife Radiosurgery Program. The Gildenberg-Laitinen Adapter Device for X-Ray (GLAD-X/LS) frame is a positioning device that allows the use of the same fiducial points as the Brown-Robert-Wells (BRW) system.
