Problem statement • How should we incorporate breathing trajectory variations into 4-D planning ?
Problem statement • Primary trajectory is volumetric • 4D-CT • Trajectory variations are non-volumetric • Implanted fiducials • Radiography and fluoroscopy • Electromagnetic transponders • Population statistics
Outline • Dosimetry model • Motion model • Population model
Dosimetry model • Problem statement: • How to compute dose to a moving target if we don’t have a CT?
Dosimetry model • Answer: “Geometric dose model” • Dose is fixed in space • Target moves within dose cloud
Dosimetry model • Geometric dose model doesn’t work for protons
Dosimetry model • Because of range effects
Dosimetry model • Modified geometric dose model • Use radiological depth instead of position
Dosimetry model • Radiological depth of anatomic points are assumed constant
Dosimetry model • Modified geometric model • Treat each beam separately • Project 3D trajectory to 2D • Could be used for photons as well
Motion model • Primary trajectory: from 4D-CT
Motion model • Trajectory variations: position change / time
Motion model • Motion model = primary + variations
Motion model • Variations have a probability distribution
Motion model • Integration over known variation curve yields specific histogram of displacements
Motion model • Trajectory variation histogram is applied to each phase separately
Motion model • Caveats: • No “interplay” effect (beams delivered in sequence) • Amplitude variations neglected
Population model • Data sources • Hokkaido RTRT • IRIS radiographic • IRIS fluoro burst • SBRT CBCT (pre/post)
Population model (1/4) • Hokkaido RTRT • ~20 lung cancer patients • Hypofractionated (early stage) • Orthogonal stereo fluoroscopy • Gated treatment • Mixed motion amplitudes (up to 30 mm)
Population model (1/4) Drift Magnitude * Take with a grain of salt
Population model (2/4) • IRIS Radiographs • 10 lung cancer patients • Standard fractionation (esp. stage III) • Orthogonal gated radiographs (exhale) • Gated RT • Large motion amplitudes (> 10 mm motion)

Population model (2/4) • This study • Median s = 0.55 cm • Yorke (JACMP ‘2005) • m = 0.63 cm • Mean s = 0.42 cm
Population model (2/4) Drift Magnitude * Take with a grain of salt
Population model (3/4) • IRIS Fluoro • 4 liver cancer patients • Orthogonal fluoroscopy • Gated RT • Large motion amplitudes (> 10 mm)

Population model (3/4) Drift Magnitude * Take with a grain of salt
Population model (4/4) • SBRT CBCT • ~15 lung cancer patients • Hypofractionated (early stage) • Pre-tx and post-tx CBCT • SBRT • Mixed motion amplitudes (range unknown)
Population model Drift Magnitude * Take with a grain of salt
Summary • Dosimetry model • Geometric model • Modified geometric model • Motion model • Motion = primary + variations • Motion variations map to dose variation • Population model • WIP
Motion model • Dosimetry can be either probabilistic or deterministic +
