Image-guided radiotherapy(IGRT) provides precise positioning for the tumor target, but it may bring extra irradiation dose in the target positioning with a cone beam CT(CBCT) which has been increasingly used in IGRT. ...Image-guided radiotherapy(IGRT) provides precise positioning for the tumor target, but it may bring extra irradiation dose in the target positioning with a cone beam CT(CBCT) which has been increasingly used in IGRT. In this work, we focused on biological effects of the low-dose irradiation in IGRT, which have not been considered so far. Primary human fibroblasts cells from the lung and MRC-5 were irradiated by a CBCT. DNA doublestrand breaks(c-H2 AX foci) and micronucleus frequency of the irradiated samples were analyzed. Compared to the control, the c-H2 AX foci yields of the samples irradiated to 16 m Gy increased significantly, and the micronuclei rate of the samples irradiated for 3 days increased notably. The dose by imaging guidance device can be genotoxic to normal tissue cells, suggesting a potential risk of a secondary cancer. The effects, if confirmed by clinical studies,should be considered prudentially in designing IGRT treatment plans for the radiosensitive population, especially for children.展开更多
