A fast model for prediction of respiratory lung motion for image-guided radiotherapy: A feasibility study
Background: The aim of this work was to study the feasibility of constructing a fast thorax model suitable for simulating lung motion due to respiration using only one CT dataset. Materials and Methods: For each of six patients with different thorax sizes, two sets of CT images were obtained in single-breath-hold inhale and exhale stages in the supine position. The CT images were then ...
متن کاملPlanning, calibration and collision-avoidance for image-guided radiosurgery
In radiosurgery a moving beam of radiation is used as an ablative surgical instrument to destroy brain tumors. Classical radiosurgical systems rely on rigid skeletal xation of the anatomic region to be treated. This xation procedure is very painful for the patient and limits radiosurgical procedures to brain lesions. Furthermore, due to the necessity of rigid xation, radiosurgical treatment wit...

متن کاملFluoroscopic tumor tracking for image-guided lung cancer radiotherapy.
Accurate lung tumor tracking in real time is a keystone to image-guided radiotherapy of lung cancers. Existing lung tumor tracking approaches can be roughly grouped into three categories: (1) deriving tumor position from external surrogates; (2) tracking implanted fiducial markers fluoroscopically or electromagnetically; (3) fluoroscopically tracking lung tumor without implanted fiducial marker...
متن کاملFunctional image-based radiotherapy planning for non-small cell lung cancer: A simulation study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To investigate the incorporation of data from single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) or hyperpolarized helium-3 magnetic resonance imaging ((3)He-MRI) into intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Seven scenarios were simulated that represent cases of NSCLC with significant functional lung ...
