摘要
ExacTrac Dynamic (ETD) provides a Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) workflow for breast patients. Stereoscopic x-ray imaging combined with optical and thermal mapping allows localisation against simulation imaging, alongside surface guided breath hold monitoring. This work aimed to determine appropriate imaging parameters, the optimal Hounsfield Unit (HU) threshold for patient contour generation and workflow evaluation via end-to-end (E2E) positioning using a custom breast DIBH phantom. After localisation via existing Image Guidance (IG), stereoscopic imaging was performed with a range of parameters to determine best agreement. Similarly, residual errors in prepositioning were minimised using a range of HU threshold contours. E2E positioning was completed for clinical workflows allowing residual isocentre position error measurement and existing IG comparison. Parameters of 60 kV and 25mAs were determined appropriate for patient imaging and HU thresholds between -600 HU and -200 HU enabled adequate prepositioning. The average and standard deviation in residual isocentre position error was 1.0 & PLUSMN; 0.9 mm, 0.4 & PLUSMN; 1.0 mm and 0.1 & PLUSMN; 0.5 mm in the lateral, longitudinal and vertical directions, respectively. Errors measured using existing IG were -0.6 & PLUSMN; 1.1 mm, 0.5 & PLUSMN; 0.7 mm and 0.2 & PLUSMN; 0.4 mm in the lateral, longitudinal and vertical directions, and 0.0 & PLUSMN; 1.0(o), 0.5 & PLUSMN; 1.7(o) and -0.8 & PLUSMN; 1.8(o) for pitch roll and yaw. The use of bone weighted matching increased residual error, while simulated reduction of DIBH volume maintained isocentre positioning accuracy despite anatomical changes. This initial testing indicated suitability for clinical implementation during DIBH breast treatments.
