AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] The image acquisition time of the existing CBCT technology is limited by the rotation speed of the large gantry of the linear accelerator, which affects the treatment time of patients and the efficiency of medical treatment
At the same time, the existing CBCT system can only simply realize KVCBCT or MVCBCT, and the finally obtained 3D volume image cannot highlight soft tissue and bone structure at the same time, which affects the subjective analysis and evaluation of users.

Embodiment Construction

[0038] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0039] The Chinese-English comparison table of the nouns that may be involved in the present invention is as follows:

[0040]

[0041] In the prior art, radiotherapy patients generally go through four stages from consultation, treatment to treatment end: phantom stage, planning stage, plan confirmation, and plan execution (treatment). The organic coordination of the four links is the key to the success of radiotherapy. In the phantom stage, it is necessary to collect planned CT images of the patient, which are used in the planning stage to formulate a treatment plan. In the plan confirmation stage, it is necessary to verify the patient's setup before or during treatment, and the plan execution stage can only be entered after ensuring that the patient's current setup is consistent with the setup of the planned CT images acquired i...

Abstract

The invention discloses a CBCT (cone beam computerized tomography) reconstruction method and a radiotherapy device. A linear accelerator system comprises an MV image subsystem and a KV image subsystem, wherein the MV image subsystem is fixed on a large rack of a linear accelerator, and the KV image subsystem is fixed on an independent slip ring. The independent slip ring and the large rack can rotate in a follow-up manner or rotate independently. Because the KV image subsystem fixed on the independent slip ring can rotate independently without following rotation of the large rack, the overallrotation weight is reduced, rotation speed of the KV image subsystem and real-time responsiveness of a motion instruction are greatly improved. Besides, the independent slip ring can also perform complex rotary motion with the large rack, image acquisition time required by a CBCT algorithm is shortened, and accordingly, positioning verification time of radiotherapy patients is shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an accelerator therapy device, in particular to a CBCT reconstruction method and a radiotherapy device. Background technique [0002] Before or during radiation therapy, medical staff often need to verify the patient's positioning to ensure that the patient's positioning on the treatment table is the same as when scanning the computerized tomography (CT) image used to make the treatment plan. The position is consistent, so that the target area can absorb the planned dose as much as possible, and protect the normal tissue as much as possible, that is, to ensure the implementation of precise treatment. [0003] In order to meet the needs of physicists and technicians in verifying the clinical setup of radiotherapy patients, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technology can be used to obtain three-dimensional volume images of patients in the treatment room, and then compared with planned CT images. The three-dimensional registr...
