36 Implementation of MIM software (adaptive module, Tomotherapy) and assessment of the planned versus delivered dose distributions for breast irradiation

Introduction. Assessing breast irradiation is a critical issue: acute and late toxicity assessment, dose homogeneity in target volumes and delivered to organs at risk. For the Tomotherapy (Accuray ®) system, the adaptive module MIM software (2017 MIM Software Inc.) - allows daily monitoring and evaluation of the dose delivered using the MVCT of each treatment session. The purpose of this project is to ensure that MIM software is reliable and then to evaluate its clinical relevance to verify the quality of the treatment by analyzing fractions administered by Tomotherapy.
