abstract = {To investigate the accuracy of the treatment planning
system (TPS) TRiP4D in reproducing doses computed by the
clinically used TPS SyngoRT.Proton and carbon ion beam
models in TRiP4D were converted from SyngoRT. Cubic plans
with different depths in a water-tank phantom (WP) and
previously treated and experimentally verified patient plans
from SyngoRT were recalculated in TRiP4D. The target mean
dose deviation (ΔDmean,T) and global gamma index $(2\%-2$
mm for the absorbed dose and $3\%-3mm$ for the RBE-weighted
dose with $10\%$ threshold) were evaluated.The carbon and
proton absorbed dose gamma passing rates (γ-PRs) were
$≥99.93\%$ and ΔDmean,T smaller than $-0.22\%.$ On
average, the RBE-weighted dose Dmean,T was $-1.26\%$ lower
for TRiP4D than SyngoRT for cubic plans. In TRiP4D, the
faster analytical 'low dose approximation' (Krämer, 2006)
was used, while SyngoRT used a stochastic implementation
(Krämer, 2000). The average ΔDmean, T could be reduced to
$-0.59\%$ when applying the same biological effect
calculation algorithm. However, the dose recalculation time
increased by a factor of 79-477. ΔDmean,T variation up to
$-2.27\%$ and $-2.79\%$ was observed for carbon absorbed and
RBE-weighted doses in patient plans. The γ-PRs were
$≥93.92\%$ and $≥91.83\%$ for patient plans, except for
one proton beam with a range shifter (γ-PR of
$64.19\%).The$ absorbed dose between TRiP4D and SyngoRT were
identical for both proton and carbon ion plans in the WP.
Compared to SyngoRT, TRiP4D underestimated the target
RBE-weighted dose; however more efficient in RBE-weighted
dose calculation. Large variation for proton beam with range
shifter was observed. TRiP4D will be used to evaluate doses
delivered to moving targets. Uncertainties inherent to the
4D-dose reconstruction calculation are expected to be
significantly larger than the dose errors reported here. For
this reason, the residual differences between TRiP4D and
SyngoRT observed in this study are considered acceptable.
The study was approved by the Institutional Research Board
of Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center (approval number
SPHIC-MP-2020-04, RS).},
