Abstract

We report the characteristics of quality assurance (QA) image for Vero4DRT system with a kilo-voltage (kV) cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) capability to perform image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). To acquire a set of CBCT, the kV source is rotated either 215° clockwise (CW) (tube 1 from 5° to 220° and tube 2 from 275° to 130°) or counterclockwise (CCW) (tube 1 from 85° to 230° and tube 2 from 355° to 140°). Image geometry, image uniformity, high/low contrast resolutions, and contrast linearity were measured with a Catphan 504 CT phantom (The Phantom Laboratory, NY). The comparison between measured and expected distances shows an excellent agreement. The CBCT for Vero4DRT system cannot perform a full 360° rotation, which leads to a loss in uniformity for image acquisition. Separations were observed for high-contrast resolution, with eight line pairs per centimeter corresponding to a gap size of 0.063 cm. For low-contrast resolution, the seventh largest hole was visible. This hole has a 4-mm diameter with 1.0% contrast level. We should check the contrast linearity compared with known value, even though it is out of range from the manufacturer manual.

摘要

我们报告了具有千伏(kV)锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)功能以执行图像引导放射治疗(IGRT)的Vero4DRT系统的质量保证(QA)图像特征。为获取一组CBCT,kV源可顺时针(CW)旋转215°(管1从5°旋转至220°,管2从275°旋转至130°)或逆时针(CCW)旋转(管1从85°旋转至230°,管2从355°旋转至140°)。使用Catphan 504 CT体模(幻影实验室,纽约)测量图像几何形状、图像均匀性、高/低对比度分辨率和对比度线性。测量距离与预期距离之间的比较显示出极佳的一致性。Vero4DRT系统的CBCT无法进行360°全旋转,这导致图像采集的均匀性有所损失。在高对比度分辨率方面观察到有间隔,每厘米八条线对对应于0.063厘米的间隙大小。对于低对比度分辨率,可见第七大的孔。该孔直径为4毫米,对比度水平为1.0%。即使超出制造商手册的范围,我们也应将对比度线性与已知值进行比较。
