Automated Verification of IGRT‐based Patient Positioning
A system for automated quality assurance in radiotherapy of a therapist's registration was designed and tested in clinical practice. The approach compliments the clinical software's automated registration in terms of algorithm configuration and performance, and constitutes a practical approach for ensuring safe patient setups. Per our convergence analysis, evolutionary algorithms perform better...
متن کاملVerification of the patient positioning in the bellyboard pelvic radiotherapy.
The size and shape of the treatment fields applied in radiotherapy account for uncertainties in the daily set-up of the patients during the treatment. We investigated the accuracy of daily patient positioning in the bellyboard pelvic radiotherapy in order to find out the magnitude of the patients movement during the treatment. Translational as well as rotational movements of the patients are ex...
متن کاملAn Automated Image-based Method for Multi-Leaf Collimator Positioning Verification in Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) is an innovative, three-dimensional conformal radiation treatment that can deliver highly focused and precisely shaped radiation to a tumor site through the use of the Multi-Leaf Collimators (MLC). A crucial step in IMRT procedure is the verification of MLC positioning to assure the accuracy of radiation treatment delivery. In this paper, we have dev...
متن کاملAutomated Verification of Interactive Rule - Based
Rule-based specifications of systems have again become common in the context of product line variability modeling and configuration systems. In this paper, we define a logical foundation for rule-based specifications that has enough expressivity and operational behavior to be practically useful and at the same time enables decidability of important overall properties such as consistency or cycl...
متن کاملSU-E-J-46: Use of Brainlab-ExacTrac IGRT with Dot-Decimal Electron Compensator(BolusECT) for Accurate Patient Positioning.
PURPOSE To Validate Brainlab-ExacTrac IGRT with Dot-Decimal electron compensator(BolusECT) for accurate patient positioning. METHODS Dot-Decimal electron compensators(BolusECT) are used to achieve conformal dose distributions and greater sparing to normal structures for cases with varying patient contours and treated with single electron beam.Setup for such patients is difficult to verify due...
