    Purpose: The aim of this study is to a) study the benefits and limitations with soft-tissue match for lung cancer patients, b) evaluate five different soft-tissue match methods, c) compare soft-tissue with bony match, d) find the stable surrogates to match on for obscured malignant lymph nodes, e) calculate CTV to PTV and OAR margins and volume of PTV for the corresponding margins, and d) study the anatomical changes associated with radiotherapy for lung cancer. Material and methods: 23 lung cancer patients (16 NSCLC, 7 SCLC) treated with radiotherapy, with 135 weekly CBCT set-up images were retrospectively matched to the planning CTs by five different match methods using the registration software Offline Review, version 10.0 (Varian Medical Systems). Four match methods utilized the volume of interest (VOI) of the CT defined GTV, including the internal motion (GTV-T/IM), plus a 2, 5, 10 or 20 mm symmetrical margin, respectively. The fifth match method used a square VOI enclosing the GTV-T with a 10 mm symmetrical margin. An intensity range of [-150;150] HU was used for automatic soft-tissue matches. Bony match was retrospectively performed and compared to soft-tissue match. Residual GTV-T/IM set-up deviations in all directions were studied for each match and PTV-T margins were calculated. Additionally, stable surrogates close to GTV-N was used for the residual GTV-N set-up deviation measurements and PTVN margin calculations. Total PTV, based on the margins calculated, was measured, by adding CTV to PTV margins to the delineated CTV for bony and GTV-T/IM + 10 mm soft-tissue matches. Additional 5 patients were included and anatomical changes were observed. Results: All soft-tissue match methods gave similar residual GTV-T/IM set-up deviations, ranging between [-3;3] mm, resulting in [5.2;5.8] mm PTV-T margins compared to bony match with deviations between [-8:10] mm and PTV-T margins [7.4;8.6] mm. Match methods utilizing larger VOIs were more stable compared to match methods using smaller VOIs. Auto match on small targets (< 3 cm3) was problematic, and not possible for match method 5. For 77% of the patients with lymph nodes, the main bronchi area was a suitable stable surrogate. For the remaining lateral GVT-Ns the aortic arch and the main pulmonary artery were suitable as surrogates. Soft-tissue and bony residual GTV-N set-up deviations ranged between [-8;10] and [-20;9] mm respectively resulting in PTV-N margins between [6;9.8] and [7.1;8.1] mm respectively. Mean total PTV spare with soft-tissue match was 54 cm3. Anatomical changes, atelectasis (21%) and pneumonitis (4%) occurred randomly during the course of treatment. For the 8 patients with large anatomical changes, which required adaptive strategy, atelectasis and tumor change were the dominant reasons for adaptation. Conclusion: Using soft-tissue match reduces the required PTV-T margins. For semi-automatic softtissue match on the primary tumor, match within GTV-T/IM with a 10 or 20 mm margin extension used as match VOIs were most appropriate. For small tumors (< 3 cm3), match manually on GTVT/ IM itself is advisable. The main bronchi area is a suitable surrogate primarily for centrally positioned mediastinal GTV-N. Atelectasis was the dominant anatomical change observed. Daily CBCT prevent missing significant anatomical changes and shorten the time between the observation and the adaptive strategy implementation.Bildstyrd strÄlterapi Àr en process bestÄende av att ta 2D eller 3D bilder under strÄlbehandlingens gÄng och anvÀnds för att försÀkra sig om att patienten Àr positionerad pÄ samma sÀtt som referensbilden för att fÄ samma dos som planerades (berÀknat pÄ referens bilden). I det hÀr arbetet har en 3D scanning av patientens positionering jÀmförs med en CT referensbild för patienten. Efter matchen, som utförs precis innan varje behandling,korrigerasavvikelsen mellan bilderna. Avvikelserna i ryggraden (benmatch) eller i tumören (target match) korrigeras genom att automatiskt flytta patienten pÄ plats gnom att flytta britsen i alla nödvÀndiga riktningar. 3D scanningen ger information om mjukvÀvnad och tumörens position. Lungtumören rör sig som följd av andningen och andra organens rörelse dÀrför Àr matchningen pÄ tumören att föredra istÀllet för att matcha pÄ ryggraden. För en sÀkrare och noggrannare match anvÀnds dÀrför 3D scanningen för lungcancer patienter. Det har gjordes en jÀmförelse mellan att matcha pÄ tumören med en marginal runt om och att matcha pÄ ryggmÀrgen. Veckovisa 3D scanningar har anvÀnts för den studien och matchningarna har utförts retrospektivt. Tumörens uppstÀllningsavvikelse berÀknades för bÄde benmatch och target match. Baserat pÄ de avvikelserna har marginalen som behövs runt tumören berÀknats. Marginalens uppgift Àr att försÀkra sig om att tumören kommer att fÄ den planerade dosen. Anatomiska förÀndringar och deras uppkomsttid har observerats under behandlingstiden. Resultaten visade att alla target match med en lite större marginal Àr stabilare att anvÀnda jÀmfört med target match med mindre marginaler. Resultaten visade ocksÄ att det behövs en mindre marginal runt tumören nÀr matchningen har gjorts pÄ tumören jÀmförts med matchningen pÄ ryggraden. Mindre marginal innebÀr att man sparar friskvÀvnad ifrÄn onödig strÄlning. Observeringen av anatomiska förÀndringar visade att förÀndringarna skedde slumpmÀssigt och sammanfallen lungblÄsa (dÄ en del av lungan inte har fyllts med luft nÀr man andas in) var den dominerande förÀndringen. Dagliga 3D scanningar skulle förebygga miss av anatomiska förÀndringar av betydelse

    The study aimed to predict halal food consumption behavior among Moslem students in three different universities in Yogyakarta City. Determinants to explain the halal food consumption was developed based on theory of planned behavior. The research applied cross-sectional design with total respondents of 168 Moslems students from State University, Islamic University, and Catholic University in Yogyakarta. The score of attitude, knowledge, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control and halal food consumption behavior were collected through a questionnaire. The data was analysed using Kruskall-Wallis and Multiple Linear Regression test. The study found that the score of knowledge in Islamic State and State University were higher than in Catholic University (7.43 vs 7.29 vs 7.09). The highest score of attitude was 51.52 in State University compared to Islamic State University and Catholic University (49.8 vs 47.61). The highest score of subjective norm was also in State University with the score of 3.59 while the score of halal food consumption behaviour was higher in State and Islamic State University compared to Catholic University (9.18 vs 9.18 vs 7.89). From those categories, the score of all variables except for the knowledge was statistically different between the three universities (p&lt;0.05). It was concluded that the behavior of halal food consumption among Moslem students in Yogyakarta City may be predicted from the knowledge, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control. These findings help to explain why the Moslem students in Yogyakarta eat halal food. Further research is needed to determine whether there are factors affecting halal food consumption behavior and how to improve it
