A kind of method obtaining the distribution of concave tumor target region dosage fast
Technical field
The present invention relates to radiation therapy technology field, particularly relate to a kind of method adopting figure programming project to obtain the distribution of tumor target dosage fast.
Background technology
Radiation therapy is the important means for the treatment of of cancer, has result for the treatment of directly, effectively, can extend the advantage of patients ' lives, be thus widely adopted for the position being difficult to perform the operation or the patient that not easily performs the operation.
It is the key realizing radiotherapy treatment planning formulation that radiation dose distribution calculates.
Existing radiation dose calculation method mainly contains: simulated annealing, genetic algorithm, gradient algorithm etc.Gradient algorithm belongs to deterministic method, and the speed of convergence of the method is very fast, but is easily absorbed in Local Extremum, is difficult to obtain globally optimal solution; And the random search algorithm that simulated annealing, genetic algorithm are this kind of, the puzzlement of local extremum can be broken away from theory, obtain globally optimal solution, but this kind of method ordinary convergence speed is comparatively slow, clinical requirement can not be met.So far also do not have a kind of method of Rapid Dose Calculation fast and effectively can directly solve tumor target shape be spill dosage distribution.
Therefore, be necessary to provide a kind of method obtaining the distribution of concave tumor target region dosage fast to overcome the problems referred to above.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of quick, easy, method of effectively obtaining concave tumor target region dosage.
Correspondingly, a kind of method obtaining the distribution of concave tumor target region dosage fast of the present invention, comprises the following steps:
S1, reads CT picture of patient;
S2, draws tumor's profiles;
S3, determine that one meets at the separation boost line of 2 with tumor's profiles, described separation boost line and tumor's profiles form two parts, judge the point midway of described separation boost line and tumor's profiles two intersection points, if mid point is positioned at tumor's profiles inside, the dosage that then accumulated dose is distributed as two parts that this separation boost line is formed with tumor's profiles distributes and is added, if mid point is positioned at tumor's profiles outside, then accumulated dose is distributed as two parts dosage that this separation boost line and tumor's profiles formed and distributes and subtract each other, judge whether the shape of two parts is convex, if not convex then to above-mentioned be not that the part of convex adopts new separation boost line to be convex graphical to the part obtained again, thus obtain the sub-target area of convex,
S4, calculate and optimize each sub-target area dosage distribution;
S5, adjusts the weight of sub-target area, and superposition obtains the distribution of tumor target integral dose.
As a further improvement on the present invention, the sub-launched field of the weight and antithetical phrase target area that adjust sub-target area in S5 carries out weight optimization.
As a further improvement on the present invention, in S5, output has launched field number, the shape of each launched field and intensity further.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: the method adopts concave pattern to be divided into the method for convex graphical, the tumor target of spill is decomposed into the sub-target area of several convexs, carry out pencil beam dosage superposition calculation respectively, finally the distribution of the dosage of the sub-target area of each convex is carried out superposing or subtracting each other, finally obtain the dose profile of concave tumor target region.Computer simulation results and actual test result are coincide.Whole process computation is simple and efficient, for IMRT treatment plan provides new solution fast.

Embodiment
Describe the present invention below with reference to each embodiment shown in the drawings.But these embodiments do not limit the present invention, the structure that those of ordinary skill in the art makes according to these embodiments, method or conversion functionally are all included in protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 1, a kind of method obtaining the distribution of concave tumor target region dosage fast of an embodiment of the present invention, comprises the following steps:
S1, reads CT picture of patient;
S2, draws tumor's profiles;
S3, draws separation boost line, thus obtains sub-target area;
S4, calculate and optimize each sub-target area dosage distribution;
S5, adjusts the weight of sub-target area, and superposition obtains the distribution of tumor target integral dose.
Particularly, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 shown in A, Fig. 2 B, the CT image of patient, after hospital's acquisition, uses Microsoft Visual Studio software, adopts C Plus Plus to programme.Program can read the CT image of patient, operator draws tumour recessed profile 1 in the drawings, when dosage line shows, add boost line 2 manually or automatically and spill target area is divided into some sub-target areas 3, further, determine that one meets at the separation boost line of 2 with tumor's profiles, described separation boost line and tumor's profiles form two parts, judge the point midway of described separation boost line and tumor's profiles two intersection points, if mid point is positioned at tumor's profiles inside, the dosage that then accumulated dose is distributed as two parts that this separation boost line is formed with tumor's profiles distributes and is added, if mid point is positioned at tumor's profiles outside, then accumulated dose is distributed as two parts dosage that this separation boost line and tumor's profiles formed and distributes and subtract each other, judge whether the shape of two parts is convex, if not convex then to above-mentioned be not that the part of convex adopts new separation boost line to be convex graphical to the part obtained again.After figure segmentation, form the sub-target area of several convexs, the dosage distribution of each sub-target area is calculated according to pencil beam superposition algorithm, the sub-launched field of antithetical phrase target area carries out weight optimization, dosage is distributed and reaches certain requirement, final tumor target dosage is distributed as the addition of each sub-target dose distribution or subtracts each other, the weight proportion of Automatic Optimal each sub-target area, makes net result reach some requirements.Obtain launched field number in the dosage distribution of tumor target and IMRT treatment plan, the position of each launched field, shape and exposure intensity.
The inventive method adopts concave pattern to be divided into the method for convex graphical, the tumor target of spill is decomposed into the sub-target area of several convexs, carry out pencil beam dosage superposition calculation respectively, finally the distribution of the dosage of each convex object is carried out superposing or subtracting each other, finally obtain the dose profile of concave tumor target region.Computer simulation results and actual test result are coincide.Whole process computation is simple and efficient, for IMRT treatment plan provides new solution fast.
As shown in Figure 3, in dosage distribution tests process, the CT figure of patient draws the recessed profile of tumor region.Adopt figure partitioning algorithm target district to be decomposed into the superposition of the sub-target area of convex, use existing radiotherapy in the treatment planning system program computation to obtain the dosage distribution of the dosage distribution of each convex object and the strong result of tune of final tumor target.Test adopts little tank 4, the organic glass solid model body 5 with human body uniform thickness is put in centre, centre accompanies tumour film 6, particularly, adopt the organic glass die body of self-control 400*400*400 millimeter Water ball (water tank) and 250*250*150 millimeter in present embodiment and use corresponding K ODAK company tumour film.Angle and the intensity of accelerator 7 are set according to program Output rusults, irradiate.In present embodiment, accelerator adopts west gate subband built-in MLC X2JAW accelerator.Film obtains actual dosage line, distribute with program dosage line and compare.
