PURPOSE To track prostate motion during clinical arc radiotherapy using a novel statistical motion tracking algorithm in both phantom and patient systems. METHODS For the phantom study, a dynamic phantom with a custom tumor model and radiopaque fiducials was used. For the patient study, the clinical data from two prostate patients were acquired during volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). ...

Quantification of cardiac function is important for the assessment of abnormalities and response to therapy. We present a method to reconstruct dense cardiac motion from sparse features in tagging MRI, decomposed into solenoidal and irrotational parts using multi-scale Helmholtz decomposition. Reconstruction is based on energy minimization using covariant derivatives exploiting prior knowledge ...
