利用電子化射束影像板將平面射束劑量轉換成電腦斷層截面等劑量曲線模擬運算之研究

The Study of Conversion Portal Dosimetry onto CT Slices from Electron Portal Image Device

摘要


現今放射治療大都採用強度調控放射治療方法(Intensive Modulation Radiation Therapy)把治療計劃系統所設計的治療方式及輻射劑量藉由此方法讓病人接受計劃性的劑量。但是,隨著強度調控愈趨複雜,驗證直線加速器給予病人的劑量和治療計劃是否一致性逐漸被重視且必要;現今劑量驗證方法之一,是在治療過程中,把穿透病人後的光子射束利用電子化射束影像板(Electronic Portal Image Device)接收後,再來跟治療計劃系統的相對應射束在電子射束影像板相同的幾何位置點所成的影像做比較就可得知整體劑量表現是否一致;但這是整體劑量堆疊出來的結果;如果要知道單一電腦斷層截面劑量(Computerized Tomography Slices)分佈,以目前技術還無法達到。所以本實驗是在探討如何利用電子化射束影像板,將平面的射束劑量分佈轉換成電腦斷層截面的等劑量曲線的研究。

The use of electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) is a promising method for the dosimetric verification of external beam, megavoltage radiation therapy-both pretreatment and in vivo, In this study, a feasibility study of developing EPID back-projection was done for Radon techniques and applied to an isodose curves map. By using this back-projection radon algorithm, two-dimensional dose distributions of a phantom or simulation are reconstructed from portal images. The model requires the primary dose component at the position of the END. In order to know for how many EPIDs that can be derived onto CT slices for dose distribution, a simple map are used to simulation. First use a few simple map and then use head phantom CT image, an isodose curve map are used for further study to make sure the task is worth to proceed. From this study, finally, we realized at least 10 to 12 EPID images can be used for conversion Portal dosimetry onto CT slices for isodose curves verification.
