Description

The orthogonal double-deck grating device and its Ziye for radiotherapy apparatus divide control method
Technical field
The present invention relates to radiotherapy equipment fields, and in particular to a kind of orthogonal double-deck grating device for radiotherapy apparatus And its Ziye divides control method.
Background technique
A kind of local treatment means of the radiotherapy as tumour, always in a basic problem for constantly seeking to solve It is how preferably to handle the dose relationship of tumor tissues (target area) and normal surrounding tissue, obtain tumour to greatest extent Partial controll and the radiation insult of normal surrounding tissue and organ is minimum.
Grating is that a kind of essential leafy collimating apparatus of modern radiotherapy apparatus can by the movement of grating blade To have extraordinary conformal effect to target area, under normal circumstances, the blade of multi-diaphragm collimator is thinner, and quantity is more, leafy standard The conformal degree of straight device is better, but for conventional single layer grating, since blade can only move in one direction, blade is thick The conformability for spending direction is limited, for parallel double-layer grating, although its vane thickness direction is suitable compared to single layer grating Shape ability increases, but is limited to the influence of vane thickness, can not move or be formed the irradiation list of any position Member;Such as application No. is 201520205602.0 Chinese patents, disclose a kind of grating device for radiotherapy equipment, End-position controller is set simultaneously and front position controller can verify simultaneously single grating blade end-position and in Between position, and measure at any time a certain grating blade from end-position reach middle position time and/or motor total revolution, Since the distance between end-position and middle position are determining constant, and can accurately measure, therefore, precise verification and It controls a certain grating blade and reaches a certain accurately specified position, the verification one by one due to the realization that can be convenient to grating blade And control, therefore different grating blade drive system bring driving errors and the unstable bring of performance can effectively be overcome to miss Difference, by realizing precisely walking for each grating blade, to reach preferable conformal effect, but it does not change it Grating carries out the conformal essential concept blocked, and illumination efficiency is still low, and there are grating leakages to penetrate, and can not preferably protect danger And organ, there is an urgent need to be improved.
Static intensity modulating Ziye divides (step-shoot) method, it is important to which the segmentation of Ziye sequence is intended to require strong Degree is layered, and the movement of single layer grating is then controlled, and each launched field is divided into a series of Ziyes and carries out once irradiating, until All Ziye irradiations finish the required intensity distribution that realizes a plan comprising following steps:
Firstly, being drawn according to the dose constraint or biological constraints of organ and target area according to optimization by treatment planning systems (TPS) It holds up, the intensity matrix after calculating each launched field optimization is denoted as P[p×q], wherein p, q are the hits of matrix;
Then, in order to carry out Ziye segmentation, here the matrix after optimization in vane thickness direction resampling.If grating It is horizontally mounted, then the matrix after resampling is denoted as D[M×N], M is set as the number of intensity map intra vane, and N is set as 256, and matrix is hanging down Histogram to sampling interval be vane thickness, the sampling interval in the horizontal direction is set as 0.25;Resampling matrix compares original matrix It is big in the sampling interval of vertical direction, it is meant that this procedural strength matrix has loss, and in a practical situation, i.e., blade is at it for performance The conformability of thickness direction is poor.
By the intensity distribution in previous step, it is divided into step-like strength grade, strength grade at equal intervals according to intensity Size determines the precision of segmentation and the complexity of Ziye;Under normal conditions, 10 grades are divided, the matrix after division is denoted as A[M×N]
Finally, starting Ziye segmentation, intensity matrix A[M×N]It can be analyzed to multiple Ziyes:
Wherein, ukFor MU value, SkFor Ziye matrix;Total MU value and total Ziye number determine illumination efficiency, and total MU value is lower, Total Ziye number is fewer, and irradiation time is shorter, and efficiency is higher.At this point, selecting the one third of current maximum intensity strong as segmentation Angle value is selected the matrix (Ziye matrix) of this segmentation under conditions of dividing intensity value, is subtracted from current intensity matrix point Cutting torch battle array:
A=A-uksk (2)
Selection segmentation intensity value is repeated, subdivision matrix is selected, until A[M×N]It is reduced to 0.
When Ziye matrix selects, it is noted that Ziye SkIt is to be made of multipair blade (MLC) opening, defines intensity map here For interior shared m to blade, the position of the lobus sinister piece and lobus dexter piece (by taking the single layer grating that 0 ° is installed as an example) of each pair of blade is respectively l, R, then spacing with blades I are as follows:
I={ x ∈ [n]: l≤x≤r } (3)
Ziye may be expressed as:
For each pair of blade, maximum one section of spacing with blades is taken as opening, i.e. spacing with blades I length is maximum.As (1, 1,1,0,1,0), single layer grating will take (1,1,1,0,0,0) as its opening shape for the first time, divide in two times.
In the case where blade can not overlap, there is also constraint, the referred to as not overlapping constraints of blade between blade pair (interleaf collision constraint-ICC), i.e. there are crossover region α by Fig. 1, therefore two kinds of situations can not be sent out in Fig. 1 Raw, for single layer grating (parallel single layer grating), to meet the not overlapping constraint of blade, above situation can only be divided in two times It completes.Therefore, multisection type intensity distribution and blade can not overlap constraint and all limit the illumination efficiency of single layer grating.
Specifically, (its by taking the segmentation of the Ziye of 5 × 8 matrixes containing more connected regions of following sphere of movements for the elephants shape intensity maps as an example In middle matrix 1 or 2 for target area and its dose intensity, then representing normal tissue with 0), in order to reach multisection type intensity point Butut and blade can not overlap constraint condition, and intensity matrix is divided into following four segmentations by the single layer grating segmentation of 0 ° of installation:
According to above-mentioned dividing method, the single layer grating of 0 ° of installation to the segmentation result of sphere of movements for the elephants shape intensity map as shown in fig. 6, Grating leaf position in Fig. 6 correspond respectively to above-mentioned matrix four times segmentation, be corresponding in turn in;The similarly single layer light of 90 ° of installations Grid are as shown in Figure 7 to the segmentation result of sphere of movements for the elephants shape intensity map.
Optimize intensity matrix (P according to the acquisition after the optimization of above-mentioned launched field[p×q]) method and above-mentioned Ziye segmentation side Method, the segmentation result such as Fig. 9 of 0 ° of single layer grating installed to triangle disposition intensity map;The similarly single layer grating pair of 90 ° of installations The segmentation result of triangle disposition intensity map is as shown in Figure 10, is not repeating herein.
To sum up, either single layer grating or parallel double-layer grating, can all face following problem;
1, the conformal degree in vane thickness direction is inadequate;
2, it can not overlap constraint in order to meet multisection type intensity distribution and blade and all limit the irradiation effect of single layer grating Rate, a complicated launched field, needs multiple Ziyes that can be formed, illumination efficiency is low.

S7: from practical subdivision matrix adjusted in the step S6 is subtracted in total subdivision matrix, new segmentation square is obtained Battle array repeats step S4-S5, until new subdivision matrix is 0;
S8: to all Ziyes of above-mentioned steps, its weight is optimized using least square method, guarantees final segmentation As a result minimum with expected matrix in step 1, complete segmentation.
Divide control method based on the above-mentioned orthogonal double-deck grating device and its Ziye for radiotherapy apparatus, with following " fields " For the Ziye segmentation of 5 × 8 matrixes (C) containing more connected regions of font intensity map, intensity matrix is divided in two times: first The secondary one third for taking maximum intensity value is segmentation intensity value, and this example 1, with 1 for intensity partition value, surrounding blade is closed to by force Figure edge is spent, checks internal whether there is or not abnormal point, point without exception in this example, therefore does not need to execute blade and blocks program, completes one Secondary segmentation obtains residual intensity matrix;It takes residual intensity matrix to do same dividing processing for the second time, completes second and divide, It is second of residual matrix that residual intensity matrix, which subtracts second of subdivision matrix, matrix is divided into C1+C2, in matrix at this time Portion's value is all 0, and segmentation is completed.Segmentation result is as follows:
In this case, parallel single layer grating needs to divide in two times, but as it appears from the above, orthogonal double-layer grating can be primary Segmentation is completed.The intensity matrix of multiple isolated areas is especially included, orthogonal double-layer grating often can once divide completion, pendulum The not overlapping constraint (interleaf collision constraint-ICC) of single layer grating has been taken off, thus has been greatly improved Illumination efficiency.
Program operation result of this example on TPS is as shown in Figure 8, it is seen that in this example, compares single layer grating, orthogonal bilayer The Ziye of grating divides total MU and Ziye number all decreases.Continue by taking triangle disposition intensity matrix as an example, single layer grating and double Layer grating comparison diagram such as Fig. 9-Figure 11, it is seen then that for it is some comprising the intensity map of more connected regions for, orthogonal double-layer grating Segmentation Ziye number is few, and total MU is low, and illumination efficiency is high.Meanwhile single layer grating is because there is impeller clearance to limit the (left and right of a pair of of blade Minimum clearance between blade), therefore each pair of blade outside intensity matrix can have a narrow slit, and the leakage of ray is caused to penetrate. And two layers of grating of double-layer grating can play a complementary effect, vertically arranged grating can hide the narrow slit of horizontal grating Gear, horizontal grating can also block the narrow slit of vertically arranged grating, cause the leakage of double-layer grating to be penetrated less.In addition, comparing list Layer grating, ray also decrease by the transmissivity of double-layer grating.To sum up, double-layer grating can reduce the transmission of ray, leakage It penetrates, preferably protection jeopardizes organ.
Then, we illustrate the algorithm that blade blocks in shown step S6 by taking 4 × 4 intensity matrix as an example.Here It is first considered that consistent with the intensity matrix sampling interval (i.e. a pair of of blade can for the grating being horizontally mounted and vertically arranged installation thickness Block a row or column data).So for following initial optimization matrix A, surrounding blade is conformal at matrix edge first, The practical subdivision matrix formed is A1, it is seen that practical subdivision matrix is bigger than initial optimization matrix, and internal there are an abnormal points “0”。
To implement blade below and blocks algorithm, " 0 " present position is subordinated to second pair of horizontal blade (remembering from top to bottom), and second It (turns left note from the right side) to vertical vane, lobus sinister piece needs to block 2 virtual values, effective distance is 2, similarly to block " 0 " Lobus dexter piece effective distance is 1, and blade effective distance is 1, and lower blade effective distance is 2, therefore, can choose blade or lobus dexter Piece is used as and blocks blade.If selecting blade to block blade, then the practical subdivision matrix formed is A2, once segment At second of segmentation can be continued to execute.Ultimately form segmentation result as shown in Figure 8.And the above method is utilized, orthogonal bilayer light Grid are finally as shown in figure 11 to the segmentation result of triangle disposition intensity map, and this will not be repeated here.
The premise of an example is that the thickness of horizontal and vertical blade is consistent with matrix sampling interval above, it is assumed here that different It causes, horizontal blade thickness is twice of matrix sampling interval, and vertical vane thickness is still equal to the sampling interval, then surrounding blade It is conformal to matrix edge, the practical subdivision matrix of formation is B1, it is seen that there is leakage exit point at two.It is tertial that the second row is analyzed first Exit point is leaked, it is subordinated to first pair of horizontal blade and second pair of vertical vane, and to block the point, lobus sinister piece, which will block 5, to be had Point, effective distance 5 are imitated, lobus dexter piece effective distance is 2, and blade effective distance is 1, and lower blade effective distance is 2, therefore is selected Blade is blocked.Then the leakage exit point of the third line secondary series is analyzed, it is subordinated to second pair of horizontal blade, and third is to vertical Blade, lobus sinister piece effective distance are 1, and lobus dexter piece is 3, blade 2, and lower blade is 1, and selecting lower blade is to block blade.Finally The subdivision matrix of formation is B2, this segmentation completion, continuation segmentation next time.
As another preferred embodiment of the invention, it is based on above content, unlike, as shown in figure 5, also wrapping The step of including, adjustment segmentation intensity value, reducing total MU (improved double-layer grating):
S7: calculating the area of practical subdivision matrix in the step S6, and the product with this area and segmentation intensity value is to comment Price card standard (referred to as income);If the product value that the product value (income) after current segmentation is greater than last segmentation (is received Benefit), then subtracting one for the segmentation intensity value in the step S4, the matrix of this segmentation is solved, repeats step S5-S6, into Row is divided again;Conversely, then carrying out step S8;
S8: from practical subdivision matrix in the step S6 is subtracted in total subdivision matrix, obtaining new subdivision matrix, repeats to walk Rapid S4-S7, until new subdivision matrix is 0;
S9: to all Ziyes of above-mentioned steps, its weight is optimized using least square method, guarantees final segmentation As a result minimum with expected matrix in step 1, complete segmentation.
Using in the present embodiment adjustment segmentation intensity value, the method for reducing total MU, with divide after Ziye area and The product for dividing intensity value is evaluation criterion, adjusts the segmentation intensity value divided every time.It overcomes and divides the later period in Ziye, because strong It spends internal matrix point to be distributed irregular (there are a large amount of concave polygons), double-layer grating blade has blocked mass efficient point, segmentation time Number increases, total higher disadvantage of MU value.
Divide control method based on the above-mentioned orthogonal double-deck grating device and its Ziye for radiotherapy apparatus, is applied to as schemed In actual case shown in 12-23,12 different cases are selected to be tested here, their Ziye number and MU statistical result is such as Figure 24 and Figure 25, it is seen that having total MU value of 8 cases in 12 cases has different degrees of reduction, as the more target areas of brain metastes More target area cases are the most significant, and Ziye number increases except an example case, and an example case is fair outer, remaining case has different degrees of Decline.Dose volume histogram-DVH the figure (Figure 12-Figure 23) of 12 cases is compared it is found that orthogonal double-layer grating can be preferably Protection jeopardizes organ (band * is double-layer grating, and DVH curve location is on the lower).To sum up, orthogonal double-layer grating can not only reduce always MU, total Ziye number improve illumination efficiency, can also preferably protect and jeopardize organ.
For those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the premise of the invention, it can also do Several modifications and improvements out, these are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
