摘要:
A brachytherapy system includes a brachytherapy applicator. The brachytherapy applicator includes an applicator tube and a radiation source configured to deliver radiation to a tumor. At least a portion of the applicator tube is configured to conform to at least a portion of a patient's anatomy. At least one ultrasound element or probe is coupled to or embedded with the applicator tube.
摘要:
Systems and methods for generating a radiation therapy treatment plan by using ultrasound images are disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a first set of image data representing a first image of an anatomical region that includes a treatment applicator inserted into the anatomical region. The method further comprises receiving tracking information indicating a position of the treatment applicator as represented in the first set of image data, obtaining a second set of image data representing a second image of the anatomical region, and combining at least a portion of the first set of image data with the second set of image data. One of the first set and the second set of image data is used to identify a target tissue portion in the anatomical region. The method further comprises generating, based on the combined image data, treatment plan information for treating the target tissue portion in the anatomical region.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a method for reconstructing a spatial position of a conduit arranged to accommodate a radiotherapeutic radioactive source, The method includes displacing an object emitting radiation inside the conduit prior to the administration of a treatment, detecting said radiation using detectors; generating data upon detecting the said radiation using a processor; and reconstructing the spatial position of the conduit by the processor based on the said data to identify a delivery path of the treatment.
