[0030] Among them, the state relationship curve parsing unit 1, the tumor motion tracking acquisition unit 2, the model robot integration unit 3, the radiotherapy parameter modification and adjustment unit 4 and the real-time prediction and use unit 5 are connected in sequence; See also Figure 2 The state relationship curve analysis unit 1 is used to obtain the tumor position of the patient under different breathing stages using magnetic resonance imaging technology, and analyze the relationship curve between the breathing state and the tumor position displacement.
[0031] In this embodiment, the state relationship curve parsing unit 1 includes a magnetic resonance image acquisition module 101 , a respiratory state setting module 102 , a magnetic resonance image processing module 103 and a relationship curve analysis module 104 .
[0032] The magnetic resonance image acquisition module 101 , the respiratory state setting module 102 , the magnetic resonance image processing module 103 and the relationship curve analysis module 104 are connected in sequence.
[0033] The magnetic resonance image acquisition module 101 is used to adjust the parameter settings and position of the magnetic resonance imaging instrument according to the patient's tumor position, and perform static scanning to obtain the tumor baseline position.
[0034] Specifically, adjusting the parameter settings and position of the magnetic resonance imaging instrument according to the patient's tumor position, and performing static scanning to obtain the tumor baseline position includes the following steps: Assess the patient's historical tumor condition, including the type, location, size of the tumor and the patient's health status, and adjust the scanning parameters of the magnetic resonance imaging device, including magnetic field strength, echo time and repetition time, according to the location and characteristics of the patient's tumor to obtain the best imaging effect.
[0035] The positioning function of the magnetic resonance imaging instrument is used to ensure that the patient and the specific tumor area are in the optimal imaging position. The patient remains still for a static scan to obtain a baseline position image of the tumor.
[0036] The respiratory state setting module 102 is used to set the repeated scanning by using the magnetic resonance imaging device under different respiratory states to capture the tumor position under each respiratory state.
[0037] Specifically, performing repeated scans using a magnetic resonance imaging device under different respiratory states to capture the tumor location under each respiratory state includes the following steps: Patients are trained on how to control their breathing to ensure that they can remain still in a specific breathing state as instructed during the scan. The parameters of the MRI scan, including the scan sequence, image resolution, and scan time, are adjusted according to the patient's tumor location and expected respiratory state.
[0038] Using respiratory synchronization technology, the timing of starting the scan is adjusted according to the patient's breathing pattern to ensure that images are acquired during the same breathing phase. During the scan, sound or visual signals are used to guide the patient to remain still in a specific breathing state (including inhalation, exhalation, and breath holding).
[0039] Repeated MRI scans were performed at various breathing states of the patient to capture the changing position of the tumor during different breathing phases.
[0040] The magnetic resonance image processing module 103 is used to align magnetic resonance images of the same patient at different scans using image registration technology, and to mark the location and size of the tumor.
[0041] Specifically, the image registration technology is used to align different scanned magnetic resonance images of the same patient and annotate the location and size of the tumor, including the following steps: The magnetic resonance images are cropped to remove irrelevant background areas and focus on the tumor and its surrounding tissues. De-noising algorithms, including Gaussian filtering and median filtering, are applied to reduce random noise in the image. One image is selected as a reference image and other images are initially registered with it to align the anatomical structures in the image.
[0042] The least squares method is used to align the refined images to ensure that the same anatomical structures in different images are completely spatially corresponding. The position of the tumor is accurately located on the registered image with the assistance of an automatic detection algorithm. The size of the tumor, including parameters such as length, width, and volume, is measured and annotated to facilitate subsequent analysis and treatment planning.
[0043] The relationship curve analysis module 104 is used to convert the position and size changes of the tumor into dynamic change data, and establish a relationship curve model to identify the trend of tumor movement.
[0044] Specifically, the location and size changes of the tumor are converted into dynamic change data, and a relationship curve model is established to identify the trend of tumor movement, including: Convert the tumor position and size into a spatial rectangular coordinate system, and solve the mapping relationship between the position and size data based on the spatial rectangular coordinate system; The mapping relationship is optimized by the least squares method, and the magnetic resonance image is registered to the spatial rectangular coordinate system according to the torque relationship to obtain dynamic change data.
[0045] The autoregressive model is used to extract dynamic features of dynamically changing data, and the extracted dynamic features are normalized to build a recognition model.
[0046] Dynamic features are used to establish a support vector data description relationship curve model, and the dynamically changing data are input into the recognition model and the relationship curve model to obtain two sets of movement indicators.
[0047] Among them, the dynamic features are used to establish a support vector data description relationship curve model, and the dynamic change data is input into the recognition model and the relationship curve model to obtain two sets of movement indicators including: The dynamic feature is set as the center point to establish the overall target area, and the support vector is used to describe the dynamic change data and the center point; The dynamic change data within the overall target area is set as the support vector data, and the dynamic change data outside the overall target area is eliminated; Implement error definition operation on support vector data, and determine whether the distance from the support vector data to the center point is less than the minimum constraint condition for dynamic feature acquisition; According to the minimum constraint condition, the relaxation factor and the penalty coefficient are introduced to obtain the optimization function of the relationship curve model, and the relationship curve model is obtained by combining the optimization function with the Lagrangian function; The recognition model and the relationship curve model are used to set the mobile index threshold, weighted index, number of dynamically changing data clusters and initial iteration value, and the dynamically changing data cluster center is determined to obtain the membership matrix; The dynamic change data are input into the recognition model and the relationship curve model respectively to obtain two groups of movement indicators, namely the position indicator and the movement speed of the tumor at the imaging time point.
[0048] The obtained movement index is input into the relationship curve model as a feature matrix to obtain the movement relationship curve of the tumor position and size change, and the movement trend of the tumor is identified based on the movement relationship curve.
[0049] Therefore, by using magnetic resonance imaging technology to obtain the tumor position in different respiratory stages and analyzing the relationship curve between the respiratory state and the tumor position displacement, static scanning and repeated scanning under different respiratory states can be implemented to capture in detail the specific position changes of the tumor with respiratory movement.
[0050] See also Figure 3 The tumor motion tracking acquisition unit 2 is used to collect images of the internal structure of the human body using X-ray technology to obtain soft tissue subtraction images, and use a tumor motion tracking algorithm to calculate the tumor motion trajectory and motion amplitude.
[0051] In this embodiment, the tumor motion tracking acquisition unit 2 includes an X-ray image acquisition module 201 , a subtraction image acquisition module 202 , a position recognition and segmentation module 203 , and a trajectory amplitude calculation module 204 .
[0052] Among them, the X-ray image acquisition module 201, the subtraction image acquisition module 202, the position recognition and segmentation module 203 and the trajectory amplitude calculation module 204 are connected in sequence.
[0053] The X-ray image acquisition module 201 is used to adjust the exposure parameters, radiation dose and imaging area of the X-ray device according to the patient's tumor position to acquire images of the internal structure of the human body.
[0054] The steps of adjusting the exposure parameters, radiation dose and imaging area of the X-ray device according to the tumor position of the patient to collect images of the internal structure of the human body include the following steps: Collect information related to the patient's medical history, tumor location, and size, and adjust the exposure parameters of the X-ray equipment according to the patient's body shape, tumor location and type. Based on the patient's specific situation and examination site, calculate and set the appropriate radiation dose to ensure image quality while protecting the patient from unnecessary radiation.
[0055] The X-ray equipment's positioning system is used to accurately determine the location of the tumor, and based on this, the best imaging area is selected. The position of the X-ray emitter and imaging plate (or detector) is adjusted according to the required imaging area.
[0056] The patient is asked to maintain a specific posture, the X-ray equipment is activated, and one or more images are taken, which may include different angles or positions as needed to fully capture the tumor and its surrounding structures.
[0057] The subtraction image acquisition module 202 is used to process the human body internal structure image according to the soft tissue subtraction and imaging processing technology to increase the soft tissue contrast and obtain a soft tissue subtraction image.
[0058] The steps of processing the internal structure image of the human body according to the soft tissue subtraction and imaging processing technology to increase the soft tissue contrast and obtain the soft tissue subtraction image include the following steps: Image denoising technology is used to reduce noise in images, improve image clarity, adjust image contrast, and enhance visualization of soft tissue in images. Soft tissue subtraction algorithms (including digital subtraction angiography and dual-energy subtraction imaging) are selected according to the imaging purpose and imaging technology used.
[0059] The selected subtraction technique is applied to the preprocessed images to enhance the contrast of target soft tissues (such as blood vessels, tumors, etc.) by weakening or removing the images of non-target soft tissues (such as bones, etc.).
[0060] The position recognition and segmentation module 203 is used to process the soft tissue subtraction image using image recognition and segmentation technology to locate the tumor area and mark the tumor boundary position.
[0061] The use of image recognition and segmentation technology to process the soft tissue subtraction image to locate the tumor area and mark the tumor boundary position includes the following steps: The image is preprocessed, including adjusting the brightness and contrast to improve the image quality. According to the characteristics of the image and the target task (tumor localization and boundary marking in this case), the level set method image segmentation technique is selected to identify and segment the tumor area in the soft tissue subtraction image.
[0062] After successfully identifying the tumor area, the boundary of the tumor is clearly marked, including drawing a contour line on the image or highlighting the tumor area with a specific color.
[0063] The trajectory amplitude calculation module 204 is used to analyze the motion trajectory of the tumor motion and measure the motion amplitude by using the tumor motion tracking algorithm in combination with the tumor target position.
[0064] Among them, using tumor motion tracking algorithm combined with tumor target position to analyze the motion trajectory of tumor motion and measure the motion amplitude includes: The shape points, area points and perimeter points of the tumor target position are described using a data point description method as tumor motion features, and the tumor motion features are input into a pre-set coordinate system; A residual neural network combined with a tumor motion tracking algorithm is used to collect boundary data of tumor motion features in a coordinate system to extract deep residual features and generate motion boundary lines that match tumor tracking. Constructing a target motion boundary model based on the motion boundary line to reflect the trajectory data of the tumor tracking motion boundary, and describing the final point of the motion trajectory of the fast tracking model to locate the tumor position based on the trajectory data; The position change of the tumor in the coordinate system is determined based on the initial point and the final point of the motion trajectory to obtain the displacement distance, and the speed of the tumor movement is solved based on the displacement distance to obtain the tumor motion amplitude.
[0065] Specifically, the target motion boundary model is constructed according to the motion boundary line to reflect the trajectory data of the tumor tracking motion boundary, and the final point of the motion trajectory of the tumor position is described by the fast tracking model based on the trajectory data, including: According to the coordinates of each tumor point on the boundary line reflected by the tumor target position and the motion boundary line, a target motion boundary model is established by using the coordinate position to set a coordinate structure sequence set to reflect the trajectory data of the tumor tracking motion boundary; The similarity between the coordinates of the tumor points is judged to determine the final target threshold of the target motion boundary, and a fast tracking model is constructed to locate the final point of the tumor motion trajectory.
[0066] The expression of the fast tracking model is: ; In the formula, ε Indicates the final positioning point of the tumor motion trajectory; θ i The first i Trajectory data points; θ j The first j Trajectory data points; ψ The coordinate points representing the motion boundary line; P The target threshold represents the boundary line of motion; L Boundary lines indicating tumor target motion.
[0067] Therefore, by adjusting the exposure parameters, radiation dose and imaging area of the X-ray equipment, high-quality internal structure images can be obtained according to the specific location and characteristics of the patient's tumor. At the same time, the tumor motion tracking algorithm is used to analyze the movement trajectory of the tumor in detail in combination with the precise tumor target position to accurately measure its movement amplitude.
[0068] See also Figure 4 The model robot integration unit 3 is used to solve the tumor motion characteristics based on the relationship curve and combine the motion trajectory and motion amplitude to build an estimation prediction model, and integrate the estimation prediction model with the radiotherapy robot.
[0069] In this embodiment, the model robot integration unit 3 includes an interval statistics processing module 301 , an estimation model construction module 302 , a control integration application module 303 and a protocol integration control module 304 .
[0070] Among them, the interval statistics processing module 301, the estimation model building module 302, the control integration application module 303 and the protocol integration control module 304 are connected in sequence.
[0071] The interval statistics processing module 301 is used to divide and calculate characteristic parameters according to the relationship curve, motion trajectory and motion amplitude, and multiply the integral interval statistics by the tumor relationship motion change value of the same patient and the corresponding motion trajectory amplitude.
[0072] Specifically, according to the relationship curve, motion trajectory and motion amplitude, the characteristic parameters are divided and calculated, and the tumor relationship motion change value of the same patient is multiplied by the corresponding motion trajectory amplitude to obtain the integral interval statistics, including the following steps: Based on the motion relationship curve of the tumor, the changing pattern of the tumor with breathing or other physiological movements is determined, and the motion trajectory of the tumor, including its path and direction, is extracted from the sequence images using image processing technology. Based on the starting and final positions of the tumor, its motion amplitude at different time points is calculated.
[0073] According to the relationship curve and the motion trajectory, the relationship motion change value of the tumor in a specific time period is calculated, and the tumor motion change value at each time point is multiplied by the corresponding motion trajectory amplitude to obtain the product value.
