Apparatus and process for dose-guided radiotherapy

A method and an apparatus for dose-guided radiotherapy for a patient (P) having an identified radiotherapy target utilizes a radiation detecting array (R) of radiation-sensitive dosimeters for the real-time remote measurement of radiotherapy at the radiation detecting array (R). The radiation detecting array is positioned within the patient's (P) body along the treatment path before or after the identified radiotherapy target or the device may be positioned beyond the patient (P) to measure transit dose. A radiation source (A) for emitting radiation for radiotherapy along a treatment path through the patient (P) to the identified radiotherapy target is utilized. The method includes generating a predicted dose pattern of radiation at the placed radiation detecting array (R). The predicted dose pattern assumes an on-target radiation source (A) emitting the radiotherapy beam along the treatment path through the patient (P) to the identified radiotherapy target. Gating of the radiation source (A) can occur responsive to the comparing of the predicted dose pattern of radiation to the real-time dose pattern at the radiation detecting array (R). Radiation intensity can vary between low levels to a treatment level responsive to coincidence of the predicted dose pattern of radiation to the real-time dose pattern at the radiation detecting array (R).

Distributed fiberoptic sensors

A distributed fiberoptic radiation sensor is described which may employ one or more radiation sensor elements distributed in a single optical fiber. Such optical fibers may be placed on surfaces, or even within parts, to unobtrusively measure radiation in precise and even difficult to reach locations. Different sensor elements may respond to different radiation types and wavelength ranges, with each sensor element causing a different wavelength of light to be emitted or absorbed within the fiber. By employing an appropriate combination of detection methods at the ends of the fiber, the distributed sensor may provide type and calorimetric discrimination of radiation incident on one or more distinguishable locations. The radiation information thus detected may be integrated, if desired, to obtain corresponding real-time dose information. With such integration, the device becomes a distributed real-time dosimeter. In another embodiment, the particular radiation sensors distributively employed may undergo permanent change in absorption characteristics. Such a device infers a total radiation dose over a particular period by measuring a change in optical response between the beginning and the end of the particular period.
