Purpose: Evaluation of the added value of radiotherapy guided by the cutaneous   surface in the positioning and monitoring of the radiotherapy   Patients and Methods: This study included 21 consecutive patients treated with an   accelerator dedicated to "True Beam®" stereotactic radiotherapy whose sessions were   monitored by an Optical Surface Monitoring System: "OSMS®". Excluded from our   study were treatments controlled exclusively by radiological imaging (IGRT).   Positioning variabilities were compared between conventional imaging and skin   surface infrared (OSMS) monitoring. Conventional imaging was in the form of   standard radiography (KV) performed during the treatment session or three-   dimensional by a series of Cone Beam computerized tomography (CBCT) scanned   images made at the beginning and end of The total time of the session and   the positioning variability’s in the 3 planes were   14   Results: The results of our study show that the cutaneous surface monitoring allowed   to obtain a faster alignment of the patient with an improvement in the overall time of   the session with a mean at 32% [14.5-49.27%], likewise a sub-millimeter positioning   quality for all locations with a median longitudinal distance of 0.02 cm [0-0.66], 01   cm verticality [0-0.32] and laterality 0.02 cm [0-0.77] This benefit is significantly   greater for cerebral and Head and neck’s localizations   21   Conclusion: Optical Surface Monitoring System (OSMS®) is a non-invasive and non-   irradiating means that allows reliable and fast

Purpose. To develop a dual energy imaging method to improve the accuracy of electron density measurement with a cone-beam CT (CBCT) device.Materials and Methods. The imaging system is the XVI CBCT system on Elekta Synergy linac. Projection data were acquired with the high and low energy X-ray, respectively, to set up a basis material decomposition model. Virtual phantom simulation and phantoms experiments were carried out for quantitative evaluation of the method. Phantoms were also scanned twice with the high and low energy X-ray, respectively. The data were decomposed into projections of the two basis material coefficients according to the model set up earlier. The two sets of decomposed projections were used to reconstruct CBCT images of the basis material coefficients. Then, the images of electron densities were calculated with these CBCT images.Results. The difference between the calculated and theoretical values was within 2% and the correlation coefficient of them was about 1.0. The dual energy imaging method obtained more accurate electron density values and reduced the beam hardening artifacts obviously.Conclusion. A novel dual energy CBCT imaging method to calculate the electron densities was developed. It can acquire more accurate values and provide a platform potentially for dose calculation.
