It is aimed to compare target volume and critical organ doses using Volumeric arc therapy (VMAT) technique for Whole body irradiation (TVI) and Whole bone marrow irradiation (TKI). In the study, a random phantom with human tissue and organ densities was used.. VMAT plans were created with a daily fraction dose of 6 Gy and a total dose of 12 Gy. Target volumes and dose values received by critical organs were compared. Treatment plans The mean lung dose for VMAT-TVI is 7.6 Gy and the lens dose is 4.4 Gy, while organs at risk (OAR) doses for VMAT-TKI range from 2.7 to 7.15 Gy. In addition, pre-treatment quality control for both plans, dose accuracy between planned and administered doses using the Octavius 4D phantom, gamma index analysis with 3mm and 3% criteria in all 3 planes, we found that ≤1 for both treatment plans. We observed a very precise dose distribution between the planned and administered treatment. It was concluded that in both treatment techniques, the target volume received the desired dose, but in the VMAT-TBI technique, dose homogeneity and treatment application techniques should be improved. It was determined that other RAOs other than the lung were also better protected with TMI. As a result of our study, it was concluded that VMAT may be a suitable technique for both TBI and TMI application compared to traditional techniques in the future.
