Background Fiducial markers are used as surrogates for tumor location during radiation therapy treatment. Developments in lung fiducial marker and implantation technology have provided a means to insert endobronchially tracking of tumors. This study quantifies the surrogacy uncertainty (SU) when using implanted surrogate position. Methods We evaluated SU 17 patients treated prospective electrom...

PURPOSE It is aim to test the hypothesis that a dynamic keyhole MRI reconstruction technique using external/internal respiratory surrogate position reduces acquisition time while retaining image quality for real-time tumor monitoring, compared to the conventional keyhole technique. METHODS 46 thoracic MRI studies with 13 healthy human subjects have been acquired using a 3T GE MRI. Acquired MR...

We prospectively evaluated real-time ultrasound speckle tracking for monitoring soft tissue motion for image-guided radiotherapy. Two human volunteers and 1 patient with a proven hepatocellular carcinoma, who was being prepared for radiation therapy treatment, were scanned using a clinical ultrasound scanner modified to acquire and store radiofrequency signals. Scans were performed of the liver...

PURPOSE A study of real-time adaptive radiotherapy systems was performed to test the hypothesis that, across delivery systems and institutions, the dosimetric accuracy is improved with adaptive treatments over non-adaptive radiotherapy in the presence of patient-measured tumor motion. METHODS AND MATERIALS Ten institutions with robotic(2), gimbaled(2), MLC(4) or couch tracking(2) used common ...

Radiation therapy is subject to uncertainties that need to be accounted for when determining a suitable treatment plan for a cancer patient. For lung and liver tumors, the presence of breathing motion during treatment is a challenge to the effective and reliable delivery of the radiation. In this paper, we build a model of motion uncertainty using probability density functions that describe bre...

This is a case report on stereotaxic (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy-SBRT) for lung cancer located in the left lower lobe (Segment 6, S6). There have been no reports on marked displacement of the peripheral lung cancer during radiotherapy. A pulmonary nodule was discovered on computed tomography (CT) conducted for a persistent cough in an 87-year-old male. According to diagnostic imaging, this ...

The dose of a real tumor target volume and surrounding organs at risk (OARs) under the effect of respiratory motion was calculated for a lung tumor plan, based on the target volume covering the whole tumor motion range for intensity modulated radiosurgery (IMRS). Two types of IMRS plans based on simulated respiratory motion were designed using humanoid and dynamic phantoms. Delivery quality ass...

Introduction Significant progress has been made in early detection and therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death. Better characterization of lung tumors will allow for individualized therapy. There is increasing evidence that hypoxia in tumors predicts poor outcome for many tumor types including lung malignancies, most notably...
