Abstract

The invention discloses an offline dose verification method based on improved CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) images. The offline dose verification method includes: subjecting the CBCT images of an individual patient to scatter correction on the basis of Monte-Carlo simulation to acquire a first CBCT image; rectifying the first CBCT image with a planned CT (computed tomography) image to acquire target-region deformation field information; verifying outline information of the planned CD image according to the target-region deformation field information, transplanting the verified outline information to the CBCT images to acquire a second CBCT image; establishing HU-ED calibration curves of the CBCT images according to average HU value of a particular tissue area of the individual patient in the second CBCT image and ED value of a particular tissue area of the planned CT image; performing dose calculation and planned validation on the basis of the second CBCT image, the HU-ED calibration curves, the planned CT and standard CT-ED calibration curves. By the technical scheme, treatment time and cost of the patient can be saved, and accurate adaptive radiation therapy and individual radiation therapy are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of radiotherapy, in particular to an off-line dose verification method based on an improved CBCT image. Background technique [0002] Image-guided Radiotherapy (IGRT) technology is used to collect patient image data before or during treatment, automatically track the target, and automatically adjust the positioning error during radiotherapy and the error caused by the movement of the target area in time to ensure Accurately administer the prescribed dose to a specific treatment area to achieve precise radiotherapy. At present, cone beam computed tomography (ConeBeam computed tomography; cone beam CT; CBCT) equipment is mostly used clinically to obtain patient image information before treatment to verify the patient's setup and monitor changes in the target area. [0003] As the course of treatment progresses, tumor regression or growth, and patient weight loss will occur, that is, the position and shape of ...
