Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a brachytherapy implant system and an implant needle path planning method. BACKGROUND
[0002] The treatment of tumors is mainly based on surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. At present, most malignant tumors are solid tumors, which need to be observed by imaging methods inside the body, including common lung cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, cervical cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, rectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, etc. Imaging methods mainly include CT, MRI, ultrasound, etc.
[0003] Brachytherapy is one of the means of radiotherapy. The technical feature is to put the radioactive source into the tumor through various methods, and to give the prescribed dose and then choose to take it out or not. The method of not taking it out is commonly known as particle implantation treatment, which usually puts iodine-131 into the tumor through a needle path similar to injection. In addition to iodine-131, some isotopes with higher energy can also be used for brachytherapy, including cobalt-60 and iridium-129. Radioactive sources with higher energy cannot exist in the tumor for a long time. After a period of treatment (usually several minutes), the radioactive source needs to be taken out.
[0004] This treatment method usually has two types. One is the afterloading treatment using natural cavities, such as cervical cancer and nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which is called afterloading treatment. The other is the more individualized treatment of tumors through the human body, such as cervical cancer, lung cancer and liver cancer, which is also called implantation treatment. Implantation treatment can individualize the distribution of isotopes according to the shape of the tumor, and adjust the residence time of each inserted "needle path" to achieve the effect of shaping the dose to the tumor.
[0005] Implantation treatment requires planning of the needle path during CT acquisition, so that the patient can be inserted with the implantation needle under general anesthesia. However, the needle path planning is completely based on the experience and skills of the operator, and there is a risk of repeated insertion of the implantation needle for the patient.
[0006] The TPS planning system calculates the residence time of the isotope source for each needle path after implantation, forming a region of dose distribution. Ideally, the operator inserts the implantation needle according to the tumor position, and forms a good needle path layout. If the operator has a deviation in the implantation of the needle path, and tolerates the deviation, it will lead to difficulties in later planning optimization, and normal tissues may be subjected to high doses in order to cover the treatment area.
[0007] The main implementation of the current implantation treatment is to collect the image of the treatment area of the patient by CT, and the operator plans the implantation needle path that can cover the treatment area by experience skill, and inserts the implantation needle under the condition that the patient is in general anesthesia. However, since the implantation needle path planning is completely based on the subjective experience skill of the operator, and the needle insertion position cannot be accurately found when the needle path is planned and inserted into the patient's body surface, there is a risk that the treatment area cannot be accurately covered due to the double reasons of inaccurate needle path planning and inaccurate needle insertion by the operator, which leads to the need for repeated implantation.

Terms such as "first" and "second" are used in this disclosure to distinguish one element from another and do not convey order or importance.
[0039] Example 1:
[0040] Basically as attached Figure 1 To the attached Figure 2 As shown,
[0041] A close-range implantation system includes a CT device 1 and an implantation core unit area, wherein the implantation core unit area is used to receive a detailed image of a patient's body formed by the CT device 1 scanning the patient layer by layer, wherein the detailed image formed by the CT device 1 includes a CT image and a treatment area;
[0042] The implant core unit area includes a computer 2, an infrared body surface acquisition device 3 and an implant structure 4;
[0043] The infrared body surface acquisition device 3 is used to scan the patient's entire body to construct a body surface positioning contour, and the infrared body surface acquisition device 3 sends the scanned body surface positioning contour to the computer 2;
[0044] Computer 2 receives the detailed image sent by CT device 1, performs contour matching between the CT image and the body surface positioning contour, synchronizes the treatment area to the body surface positioning contour, and plans the needle insertion path for the treatment area;
[0045] The infrared body surface acquisition device 3 is also used to project the implant needle path onto the patient's body surface through a light source, and to display the actual insertion position of the implant needle path on the patient's body surface through the body surface positioning contour;
[0046] The implantation structure receives the movement instructions of the implantation needle track planned by the computer 2 . The implantation structure includes an implantation portion 5 and an implantation needle 6 . The implantation portion 5 positions the implantation needle 6 .
[0047] The scheme sends the detailed image of the patient collected by the CT device 1 to the computer 2 in the implant core unit area, and then constructs the body surface positioning contour by scanning the patient through the infrared body surface acquisition device 3. The CT image of the detailed image of the patient is matched with the body surface positioning contour. When the CT image and the body surface positioning contour are matched in position, the treatment area of the detailed image can also be synchronized to the implant core unit area through the body surface positioning contour, so that the computer 2 plans the implant needle path. The implant needle path calculated through information matching can completely cover the treatment area, avoiding the determination error caused by the subjective experience skill of the operator. The motion instruction is sent to the implant structure, and the implant part 5 of the implant structure moves to each implant needle position planned by the computer 2 for positioning and guiding. Through the positioning and guiding of the implant structure, the implant positioning of the implant needle 6 is more accurate, and repeated implantation caused by inaccurate implantation position is avoided.
[0048] During use, the operator outlines the detailed image scanned by the CT device 1, and forms a treatment area by outlining the region in the detailed image that needs to be treated. Since the detailed image is a three-dimensional image formed by layer-by-layer scanning of the CT device, and the CT image is also an image with a contour shape composed of multiple scanning images, the operator also needs to outline layer by layer when outlining the treatment area, so that the formed treatment area is also a three-dimensional structure.
[0049] Preferably, the detailed image of the CT device 1 is a DICOM format file, and the DICOM format file is transmitted to the implant core unit area. The DICOM format supports up to 16-bit high dynamic range, so that the details and contrast of the image are more abundant, and the DICOM format can ensure the compatibility and consistency of the image and data between different devices when storing images in the medical field. When the DICOM format image formed by the CT device 1 is transmitted to the implant core unit area, the consistency of the image and data can also be ensured, avoiding data errors caused by scanning patterns between different devices and affecting implantation.
[0050] The infrared body surface acquisition device 3 can match the scanned body surface positioning contour with the CT image. The body surface positioning contour acquires the image of the skin layer of the patient, and the infrared body surface acquisition device is arranged opposite to the operating bed. When the infrared body surface acquisition device 3 can match the implant needle path matched with the patient's body surface positioning contour to the skin layer of the patient's body through the light source emission function, the actual needle insertion position of the implant needle path during implantation can be clearly seen during needle insertion.
[0051] Preferably, the implant needle path includes a plurality of implant point positions. The number and distribution of the implant point positions are determined according to the shape of the treatment area. The implant needle path completely covers the treatment area, and the implant point positions are marked by the computer.
[0052] In this embodiment, the computer sends a signal and a motion instruction of the planned needle path on the treatment area to the implanting structure, and the treatment area is drawn in the computer to build a three-dimensional coordinate graph. According to the optimal planned needle path, the implanting sequence of each implanting point is calculated.
[0053] The computer 2 of this embodiment is connected to the display 7, which is used to display the implanting point of the treatment area and the needle path. The implanting point is displayed with the azimuth and depth. The computer 2 of this embodiment displays the calculation and planning structure through the display 7, so that the operator can accurately implant according to the implanting position and the implanting depth during the implanting process.

The mechanical arm 8 is a multi-degree-of-freedom adjusting structure, and the mechanical arm 8 is drivingly connected to the implanting part 5. The implanting part 5 includes a needle pushing guide assembly 51, which contains the implanting needle 6. The needle pushing guide assembly 51 is used to guide the needle insertion process of the implanting needle 6. The needle pushing guide assembly 51 guides the movement of the implanting needle 6 inserted into the treatment area, so that the implanting needle 6 can be stably inserted, reducing the error of needle insertion. The mechanical arm 8 adjusts the needle insertion angle of the needle pushing guide assembly 51 output to the treatment area, and the implanting part 5 can adapt to the irregular surface of the treatment area for vertical needle insertion.
[0056] The needle pushing guide assembly 51 of this embodiment is provided with a guide part capable of containing the implanting needle 6. The guide part is provided with a guide cavity, and the guide cavity is in sliding fit with the implanting needle 6. The implanting needle 6 is stably output to the implanting point along the guide cavity. In order to make the implanting needle push the needle pushing guide assembly 51, the top of the needle pushing guide assembly 51 is provided with a needle pushing part. The needle pushing part can act on the top of the implanting needle in the guide cavity of the guide part. The operator pushes the needle pushing part to act on the implanting needle 6, so that the implanting needle 6 is output to the implanting point along the guide assembly 51 for needle insertion.
[0057] The push rod of the needle pushing part can also be provided with a scale line, and the outer wall of the shell of the needle sleeve is provided with a transparent window along the axial direction.

The positioning component 52 includes a laser generator 521 and a laser guide. The laser emitter 521 emits a laser beam to the laser guide. The laser guide is used to deflect the laser beam. The laser guide outputs the incident laser. The position where the incident laser intersects with the axis of the implantation needle is the implantation point. This solution installs the positioning component 52 on the push needle guide component 51 so that the positioning component 52 can move and adjust the angle synchronously with the push needle guide component 51. After deflection by the laser guide, the incident laser intersects with the axis of the implantation needle, and the intersection position coincides with the implantation point. When the incident laser acts on the implantation point, the laser distribution position can be used to locate the insertion position of the implantation needle, thereby improving the accuracy of the insertion position.
[0060] The laser guide includes a photoelectric deflection component 522 and a ranging component. The photoelectric deflection component 522 adjusts the angle of the laser beam, and the ranging component measures the length of the incident laser. The length of the incident laser is adjusted by the robotic arm 8. According to the values recognized by the photoelectric deflection component 522 and the ranging component, the intersection point of the incident laser and the implantation needle is calculated as the implantation point, so that the laser beam acts on the implantation point and can be inserted by the implantation needle.
[0061] Example 4:
[0062] The implant core unit of this embodiment also includes an ultrasound probe 9, which generates an ultrasonic signal that is radiated into the treatment area. The probe then receives echo signals reflected from the treatment area and uses these echo signals to generate an image of the portion of the implant needle 6 within the treatment area. The ultrasound signal confirms that the implant needle has been inserted into the planned location, verifies the direction and depth of insertion, and synchronizes the latest position information of the implant needle 6.
[0063] After confirming that the implant needle 6 is accurately inserted into the implant needle tract, the isotope source is injected into the patient.
[0064] The implantation needle 6 is connected to the isotope source stepper 10 through a pipeline, and the isotope source stepper 10 inputs isotopes into the treatment area through the implantation needle 6 .
