A radiotherapy apparatus controlling method according to the present invention includes controlling an imager driving unit to move an imaging unit to a position, and to image a transmission image by the imaging unit based on a radiation emitted from a first irradiating unit; and controlling the imager driving unit to move the imaging unit to a position, and to image a transmission image based on a radiation emitted from a second irradiating unit. According to such a radiotherapy apparatus controlling method, it is not necessary to separately provide an imaging unit which images the transmission image using a first radiation emitted from the first irradiating unit and an imaging unit which images a transmission image from the radiation emitted from the second irradiating unit, and a radiotherapy apparatus can be manufactured to be cheaper.

A radiotherapy device control apparatus controlling a radiotherapy device, includes an affected area position database, a motion collection section, and an irradiation position control section. The radiotherapy device includes a therapeutic radiation irradiation device radiating therapeutic radiation, a motion detector detecting motion of the subject, and a drive device moving the therapeutic radiation irradiation device with respect to the subject. The affected area position database associates a position set with a motion related information set related to the motion. The motion collection section collects the motion from the motion detector. The irradiation position control section moves the therapeutic radiation irradiation device by the drive device such that the therapeutic radiation is radiated to a position in the position set corresponding to motion related information of the motion.

A radio tomography imaging method includes calculating a conversion function based on transmission images picked up by using radiation emitted from first and second radiation sources. A position of the second radiation source when the radiation has been emitted coincides with a position of the first radiation source when the radiation has been emitted, and one of the first and second radiation sources emits the radiation when the other emits the radiation, picking up a plurality of first reconfiguration transmission images and a plurality of second reconfiguration transmission images by using a plurality of first reconfiguration radiations and a plurality of second reconfiguration radiations simultaneously emitted from the first radiation source and the second radiation source. The plurality of first and second reconfiguration transmission images are then corrected based on the conversion function. The plurality of corrected transmission images are reconfigured into three-dimensional data.

摘要:
A radiotherapy apparatus controller includes: a movement collection section; a sensor control section configured to change a first time interval in which a second sensor measures a position of an irradiation area in the subject, based on the movement information; and an irradiation control section. The movement collection section collects movement information indicating a movement of a subject from a first sensor. The sensor control section changes a first time interval in which a second sensor measures a position of an irradiation area in the subject, based on the movement information. The irradiation control section controls a radiotherapy apparatus such that therapeutic radiation irradiated to the irradiation area is changed based on the position.

A radiotherapy device control apparatus includes: a template matching section; an affected area position calculating section; and an irradiation position control section. The radiotherapy device control apparatus controls a radiotherapy device. The radiotherapy device includes: a therapeutic radiation irradiation device radiating therapeutic radiation, and an imager generating an imager image of a subject by using radiation transmitted through the subject. The template matching section calculates degree of coincidence when a pattern matching is executed on the imager image with a plurality of image templates in which positional relations between an object area and a non-object area of the subject are different, and selects a specified image template having the degree of coincidence within a predetermined range from the plurality of image templates. The affected area position calculating section calculates a position of the object area by using the specified image template. The irradiation position control section judges whether a relative position of the object area with respect to the therapeutic radiation irradiation device. The irradiation position control section moves one of the therapeutic radiation irradiation device and a couch with the subject by using a drive device provided with the radiotherapy device such that the object area is irradiated with the therapeutic radiation.
