AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

In this new technology, we use an algorithm called inverse MCMC (iteratively optimized) for accurately reproducing radioactive particles' movement within matter undergoing treatment or exposure. By doing these simulations, our system allows us to create detailed models of how they move inside materials such as plates used during radiotherapies. These modeling techniques help researchers better predict what will happen when exposed radionuclides are given off from different sources. Overall, this innovation improves the quality control process for producing effective treatments against cancer cells.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem: Current Radiation Dosage Distribution (RDD) analysis techniques have limitations due to factors like long-term exposure from X-ray devices or complicated geometry that may affect their performance over time. There has been an effort towards developing more efficient algorithms with improved resolution capabilities while also improving upon existing ones.

Embodiment

[0046] Intensive reconstruction of a radiotherapy radiation source in a typical lung cancer patient. The lung cancer patient received intensity-modulated radiation therapy, and a total of 7 beams were irradiated. Here, beam 1 was reconstructed with radiation source intensity. Beam 1 was vertically incident on the surface of the human body. The distance to the portal imaging device is 140cm, and the portal imaging device collects measurement images such as figure 2 (a). The specific reconstruction steps are as follows:
