Abstract:
Three D (3D)-printed boluses have been a research hot spot in recent decades; as such patient-specific boluses can reduce the air gaps between boluses and the patient's skin, thus improving radiotherapy treatment outcomes. In this research, the radiological characteristics of Agilus-30 materials were studied by CT value and the percent depth dose measurement experiments. Moreover, in this research, 3D-printed boluses for Phantom's ear and nose were designed and manufactured through both traditional CT reconstruction method and Structure Sensor Pro scanning method. Through this study, the feasibility of using Agilus-30 as 3D-printed bolus material was demonstrated. And it turned out that the fabrication of 3D-printed boluses using Structure Sensor Pro scanners was initially possible. More importantly, the introduction of user-friendly, portable, and affordable 3D scanning devices in this research also opens up new possibilities for the clinical application of patient-customized medical devices in other medical fields.
