Dynamic MLC Tracking Using 4D Lung Tumor Motion Modelling and EPID Feedback
Background: Respiratory motion causes thoracic movement and reduces targeting accuracy in radiotherapy. Objective: This study proposes an approach to generate a model to track lung tumor motion by controlling dynamic multi-leaf collimators. Material and Methods: All slices which contained tumor were contoured in the 4D-CT images for...
متن کاملAdaptive Stereotactic-body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) Planning for Lung Cancer Significance and Innovation: Tumor shrinkage during SBRT of lung cancer
Introduction: SBRT is an emerging radiotherapy technique for treating early-stage non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) or oligometastatic lesions to the lung [3, 4]. Significant tumor shrinkage has been observed in some patients during the course of SBRT [1, 2]. Adaptive planning has the potential to reduce radiation dose to organs of risk (OARs), and further escalate radiation dose to the tumor...
متن کاملLung tumor motion change during stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT): an evaluation using MRI
The purpose of this study is to investigate changes in lung tumor internal target volume during stereotactic body radiotherapy treatment (SBRT) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Ten lung cancer patients (13 tumors) undergoing SBRT (48 Gy over four consecutive days) were evaluated. Each patient underwent three lung MRI evaluations: before SBRT (MRI-1), after fraction 3 of SBRT (MRI-3), and...
متن کاملStereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Small Lung Tumors in the University of Tokyo Hospital
Our work on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for primary and metastatic lung tumors will be described. The eligibility criteria for SBRT, our previous SBRT method, the definition of target volume, heterogeneity correction, the position adjustment using four-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (4D CBCT) immediately before SBRT, volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) method for S...
متن کاملImproving iterative 4D CBCT through the use of motion information
In Image-Guided RadioTherapy (IGRT) of lung tumors, patients undergo a 4D CT, on the basis of which their treatment is planned. It is implicitely assumed that their breathing motion will not change much throughout the treatment, and remain close to what it was during the 4D CT acquisition. During the treatment, several cone beam CT acquisitions are performed, and used to re-position the patient...
