📖 Dosimetric Indices & Metric References
1. Homogeneity Index (HI)
Evaluates dose uniformity inside the target volume (PTV) according to ICRU 83 protocol.
HI = (D2% - D98%) / D50%
- D2%: Dose to 2% volume (Hot Spot).
- D98%: Dose to 98% volume (Cold Spot).
- D50%: Median dose to 50% volume.
2. Conformity Index (CI)
Measures volumetric coverage of the 95% prescription dose relative to total PTV.
CI = V95% / VPTV_Total
- V95%: Total volume receiving 95% dose.
- VPTV_Total: Total planning target volume.
Target: Close to 1.1
3. Gradient Index (GI)
Evaluates steepness outside PTV to protect surrounding normal tissues.
GI = V50% / V100%
- V50%: Total volume receiving 50% dose.
- V100%: Total volume receiving 100% dose.
Target: ≤ 5.0
