| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We researched the correlation between irradiated dose and pelvic bone fracture for uterine cervical patients which were treated with external beam radiotherapy and intracavitary brachytherapy. Total dose which were using analysis includes external beam therapy doses and intracavitary brachytherapy doses.Although no clear threshold dose was observed in the lumbar spine, ilium, sacrum and sciatic, V30 Gy> 75%, V40 Gy> 55%, V50 Gy> 25% of pubic bone can identify threshold dose on DVH. We identified that patients who had such DVH parameters were significantly suffered pubic fracture . We have finished writing a manuscript and are working on posting.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
子宮頸癌の治療に関して、骨折の発生リスクは今までの研究では低く見積もられていた。また、日本の標準照射方法である中央遮蔽を用いた外照射、および腔内照射の線量を両方合算して骨折を起こす閾値線量を示した研究は非常に限られていた。今回この閾値線量を用いることで放射線治療に際して骨折予防をより積極的に行うことが可能になると考えられる。
