Verifying the treatment value(Monitor Unit) unnecessarily involves too many simple and repetitive calculation processes, that is, individual computation process using the data(PDD value, Scp Factor, SSD Factor, Tray Factor) on the data book. We intend to minimize the time required to check the Monitor Unit through computerized calculation. Using $^{\ast}(multiplication)$, /(division), +(sum), if function, among others, which are present in the Excell program, MS office program, the Monitor Unit was obtainable through A/P value, Scp Factor and PDD value, Wedge Factor. From the verification of the computations of Monitor Unit for 60 patients previously treated, we were able to obtain an error rate of ${\pm}0.028MU$. Computerized calculation of the Monitor Unit could save the burden of Technologist.

Purpose: The purpose is to evaluate the accuracy of correcting the targeting error through the Target Location System (TLS) for the location change error of the reference point which arises from the movement or motion of patient during the treatment using the CyberKnife. Materials and Methods: In this test, Gafchromic MD-55 film was inserted into the head and neck phantom to analyze the accuracy of the targeting, and then the 6 MV X-ray of CyberKnife (CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System G4, Accuray, US) was irradiated. End to End (E2E) program was used to analyze the accuracy of targeting, which is provided by Accuray Corporation. To compute the error of the targeting, the test was carried out with the films that were irradiated 12 times by maintaining the distance within the rage of $0{\pm}0.2\;mm$ toward x, y, z from the reference point and maintaining the angle within the rage of $0{\pm}0.2^{\circ}$ toward roll, pitch, yaw, and then with the films which were irradiated 6 times by applying intentional movement. And the correlation in the average value of the reference film and the test film were analyzed through independent samples t-test. In addition, the consistency of dose distribution through gamma-index method (dose difference: 3%) was quantified, compared, and analyzed by varying the distance to agreement (DTA) to 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, respectively. Results: E2E test result indicated that the average error of the reference film was 0.405 mm and the standard deviation was 0.069 mm. The average error of the test film was 0.413 mm with the standard deviation of 0.121 mm. The result of independent sampling t-test for both averages showed that the significant probability was P=0.836 (confidence level: 95%). Besides, by comparing the consistency of dose distribution of DTA through 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, it was found that the average dose distribution of axial film was 95.04%, 97.56%, 98.13%, respectively in 3,314 locations of the reference film, consistent with the average dose distribution of sagittal film that was 95.47%, 97.68%, 98.47%, respectively. By comparing with the test film, it was found that the average dose distribution of axial film was 96.38%, 97.57%, 98.04%, respectively, at 3,323 locations, consistent with the average dose distribution of sagittal film which was 95.50%, 97.87%, 98.36%, respectively. Conclusion: Robotic CyberKnife traces and complements in real time the error in the location change of the reference point caused by the motion or movement of patient during the treatment and provides the accuracy with the consistency of over 95% dose distribution and the targeting error below 1 mm.

본 연구는 토모테라피(Accuray Inc, Sunnyvale, CA, USA)의 자동영상정합 과정에서 조정인자에 따른 종축과 회전축의 오치를 분석하였다. 다섯그룹(두부, 경부, 흉부, 복부, 골반부)으로 구분된 총 50명의 치료가 종료된 환자를 대상으로 하였고, 총 500개의 megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) 영상을 분석하였다. 모의치료에서 kilovoltage computed tomography (kVCT)영상을 얻었고, 치료계획을 위하여 토모테라피 Hi-Art II 치료계획시스템(Accuray Inc, Sunnyvale, CA, USA)을 사용하였다. 매 회 치료 전 자동영상정합 과정을 시행하였고, 종축과 회전축의 오차를 기록하였다. 종축과 회전축의 일치도(adjustments)에서 자동영상정합을 분석하기 위하여 총 아홉 가지 조정인자를 적용하였고, 각 그룹의 계통적(systematic, ∑)과 통계적(random, RMS) 오차에 대하여 종합적 평균오차(overall mean value , M)를 구했다. 각 그룹 간 회전축 일치도의 종합적 평균오차에서 밀도와 해상도에 따른 다양한 조정인자에 의한 차이를 보였다. 밀도와 해상도가 높아짐에 띠라 회전축 일치도에서 편차가 작았다. 그러므로, 토모테라피에서 “full-image”모드와 “standard” 해상도를 이용한 자동영상정합은 정확한 오차 확인이 가능하고, 환자 재위치잡이(repositionning) 및 보정(correcting)에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다. The purpose of this study was to analyze translational and rotational adjustments during automatic rigid image-registration by using different control parameters for a total of five groups on TomoTherapy (Accuray Inc, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). We selected a total of 50 patients and classified them in five groups (brain, head-and-neck, lung, abdomen and pelvic) and used a total of 500 megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) image sets for the analysis. From this we calculated the overall mean value(M) for systematic and random errors after applying the different control parameters. After randomization of the patients into the five groups, we found that the overall mean value varied according to three techniques and resolutions. The deviation for the lung, abdomen and pelvic groups was approximately greater than the deviation for the brain and head-and-neck groups in all adjustments. Overall, using a "full-image" produces smaller deviations in the rotational adjustments. We found that rotational adjustment has deviations with distinctly different control parameters. We concluded that using a combination of the "full-image" technique and "standard' resolution will be helpful in assisting with patients' repositioning and in correcting for set-up errors prior to radiotherapy on TomoTherapy.

본 연구의 목적은 토모테라피(Hi-ArtII, TomoTherapy, USA) 치료 시 Bodyfix system (Medical Intelligence, Ele-kta, Schwabmuchen, Germany)에서 진공압박(Vacuum compression)에 따라 환자 위치잡이오차(Patient's setup-errors)를 평가하고자 하였다. Bodyfix system와 진공압박을 적용한 토모테라피를 이용하여 치료를 시행한 흉복부 환자 21명을 선정하였으며, 모든 환자는 치료 전 촬영된 총 477개의 메가볼테이지 전산화단층촬영(Mega-voltage computed tomography, MVCT)영상을 얻었다. 이를 통하여 확인된 좌우방향(Medial-Lateral direction, ML), 앞뒤방향(Anterior-Posterior direction, AP), 상하방향(Superior-Inferior direction, SI)과 SI중심축 회전각(Rotational angle of SI axis direction, Roll)에 대한 오차를 기록하고, 분석하였다. 세 방향 및 Roll에 대한 상관관계와 진공압박 정도가 다르게 적용된 다섯 그룹에 대하여 setup-errors를 분석하기 위해 각각 Pearson's product-moment coefficient와 One-way ANOVA를 이용하여 통계적으로 분석하였다(p<0.05). 분석결과 Systematic errors의 평균은 AP에서 6.00 mm, 표준편차는 SI에서 5.95 mm로 큰 오차를 보였다. Random errors의 평균은 SI방향에서 4.72 mm로 큰 오차가 발생하였다. 관계분석에서는 상관계수가 ML-Roll과 AP-Vector는 0.485, 0.244이고, SI-Vector에서 관계가 제일 높았다(0.637). 또한, 진공압박 정도가 다르게 적용된 다섯 그룹(Pressure range: 30~70 mbar) 사이의 setup errors를 분석한 결과 ML, SI방향과 Roll에서 모두 p=0.00 (p<0.05)로써 유의한 차이를 보였으며, SI방향에서 진공압박에 따른 오차 평균은 40 mbar과 70 mbar그룹에서 4.78 mm, -0.74 mm였다. 본 연구에서는 진공압박과 setup-errors의 평가를 통계적으로 분석하였으며, 압박 정도에 따라 SI방향에서 setup-errors의 차이를 확인하였다. 최종적으로 setup-errors와 내부장기의 움직임을 고려하자면 Bodyfix system을 이용한 진공압박을 적용시 최소 50 mbar 이상을 사용해야 할 것이다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 진공압박의 정확성과 내부장기 및 종양의 움직임을 정량적으로 분석할 필요가 있다고 판단된다. The aim of this study is to evaluate the patient's setup errors in TomoTherapy (Hi-Art II, TomoTherapy, USA) Bodyfix system (Medical Intelligence, Ele-kta, Schwabmuchen, Germany) pressure in the vacuum compression, depending on and were evaluated. Bodyfix immobilization system and vacuum pressure was compression applied to the patients who received Tomotherapy thoracic and abdominal area, 21 patients were selected and TomoTehpay treatment total 477 of MVCT images were obtained. The translational (medial-lateral: ML, anterior-posterior: AP, superior-inferior: SI directions) and rolling were recorded and analyzed statistically. Using Pearson's product-moment coefficient and One-way ANOVA, the degree of correlation depending on the different vacuum pressure levels were statistically analyzed for setup errors from five groups (p<0.05). The largest average and standard deviation of systematic errors were 6.00, 5.95 mm in the AP and SI directions, respectively. The largest average of random errors were 4.72 mm in the SI directions. The correlation coefficients were 0.485, 0.244, and 0.637 for the ML-Roll, AP-Vector, and SI-Vector, respectively. SI-Vector direction showed the best relationship. In the results of the different degree of vacuum pressure in five groups (Pressure range: 30~70 mbar), the setup errors between the ML, SI in both directions and Roll p=0.00 (p<0.05) were shown significant differences. The average errors of SI direction in the vacuum pressure of 40 mbar and 70 mbar group were 4.78 mm and -0.74 mm, respectively. In this study, the correlation between the vacuum pressure and the setup-errors were statistically analyzed. The fact that setup-errors in SI direction is dependent in vacuum pressure considerly setup-errors and movement of interal organs was identified. Finally, setup-errors, and it, based on the movement of internal organs in Bodyfix system we should apply more than 50 mbar vacuum pressure. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that accuracy of the vacuum pressure and the quantitative analysis of movement of internal organs and the tumor should be studied.
