Appl.No 18272962 Applicant Ardos ApS Inventor Thomas Lyhne Ravkilde

A method for dose guidance for a radiotherapy system during a radiotherapy session includes the steps of: performing substantially real-time dose reconstruction to obtain a delivered radiation dose generated by a radiotherapy beam of the radiotherapy system in at least one volume; repeatedly estimating a remaining radiation dose based on an observed and/or simulated motion of the at least one volume; repeatedly estimating a final delivered radiation dose as a sum of the delivered radiation dose and the estimated remaining radiation dose; and providing dose guidance for a remaining part of the radiotherapy session based on the estimated final delivered radiation dose. A method of continuous estimation of final delivered radiation dose during a radiotherapy session and a decision support system for a radiotherapy system are also provided.

An iterative Kalman Filter method was developed to address the need for estimating randomly moving targets during cancer radiotherapy on a standard equipped linear accelerator. Extensive evaluation of this method using different treatment scenarios shows sub-mm accuracy and precision. In addition, the system and method allows the target (or surrogates of the target) to be monitored without the need of a learning arc, reducing additional imaging dose to the patient. In addition, the method and system performs robustly against imaging and segmentation noise.

An image guidance method for treatment by a medical device. The method comprises imaging a target area to which the treatment is to be delivered. During the interventional procedure, an image from the imaging is analysed by a patient-specific, individually trained artificial neural network to determine the position of at least one or more anatomical objects of interest present in the target area. The determined position(s) is output to the medical device for the delivery of treatment.

Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for cardiac structure tracking. An example method includes segmenting a diaphragm or respiratory surrogate, heart, and target. The method also includes performing a peak-exhale to peak-inhale registration and generating a respiratory motion model. The method further includes tracking the diaphragm using X-ray imaging and estimating a target position for an x-ray guided cardiac radioablation treatment. The example method provides directly, precisely controlled x-ray guided cardiac radioablation that accurately targets the substrates of cardiac ablation while minimizing doses to healthy tissue.

Methods, apparatuses and systems are disclosed for dose-based optimization related to multi-target multi-leaf collimator ("MLC") tracking during radiation therapy. In an example, a method includes calculating a planned radiation dose volume using an MLC plan and assigning dose voxels from the planned radiation dose volume to two or more patient tissue targets. The method also includes shifting the dose voxels such that the dose voxels that are assigned to one of the patient tissue targets are shifted according to motion of the respective patient tissue target, and integrating a delivered three-dimensional dose into a two-dimensional beam's eye view ("BEV") grid for each of the dose voxels. The method further includes fitting, for each leaf track, an MLC aperture by minimizing a cost function, accumulating a delivered dose based on the fitted leaf positions, and updating a gantry position and MLC leaf positions to update a next planned dose.

Methods, apparatuses and systems are disclosed for dose-based optimization related to multi-leaf collimator (“MLC”) tracking during radiation therapy. In an example, a method includes calculating a planned radiation dose using an MLC plan in an unshifted dose volume, acquiring, using a radiation machine, a target position through motion tracking, and shifting the dose volume by the target position. The method also includes integrating a three-dimensional dose into a two-dimensional beam’s eye view grid and fitting, using the radiation machine for each leaf track, an MLC aperture by minimizing a cost function. The method further includes calculating and accumulating a delivered dose based on the fitted leaf positions of the MLC and updating a gantry position and MLC leaves to update a next planned dose.
