ABSTRACT
Objective The literature study the setup errors of head and neck, thoracic, abdominal and pelvic tumors by megavoltage fan-beam CT based image guidance in TOMO-HD to provide the margin enlarging from clinic target volume (CTV) to planning target volume (PTV) in treatment planning system of TOMO-HD. Methods 103 patients with head and neck (30 patients), thoracic (42 patients), abdominal and pelvic (31 patients) carcinoma were enrolled. Megavoltage fan-beam CT based image guidance in tomotherapy-HD was used to acquire CT scan before every treatment. The left-right (X), superior-inferior (Y), anterior-posterior (Z) and rotation (Fy) setup errors of patients can be obtained from the tomography image automatically restructured by the system. Calculating the systematic error and the random error in the three dimensions and check whether the setup data accord with the normal distribution or not, then acquire the data expand in the three directions. Results According to 2593 fan-beam CT scans, the shift errors (µ ± s) in X, Y, Z and Fy (rotation) of three study group were [(−0.31 ± 2.16) mm、(1.09 ± 3.56) mm、(2.36 ± 2.27) mm, (0.29 ± 0.96)°] (head and neck tumor), [(−0.98 ± 2.95) mm、(0.45 ± 6.86) mm、(3.79 ± 2.47) mm, (0.18 ± 0.60)°] (thoracic cancer) and [(−0.86 ± 2.85) mm、(−1.59 ± 6.91) mm、(5.77 ± 2.40) mm, (0.20 ± 0.68)°](abdominal and pelvic carcinoma). The systematic errors (∑) and random errors (σ) in X, Y, Z dimensions of patients with head and neck, thoracic, abdominal and pelvic tumors were (1.06 mm and 1.84 mm), (1.93 mm and 3.43 mm), (2.41 mm and 2.71 mm), (1.10 mm and 2.56 mm), (3.79 mm and 5.46 mm), (1.38 mm and 1.99 mm) and (1.39 mm and 0.87 mm), (4.98 mm and 5.69 mm), (1.19 mm and 2.05 mm), respectively. Conclusion It is recommended as a reference for image guidance in TOMO-HD according to the frequency distribution of setup errors, for patients with head and neck, chest and abdominal and pelvic tumors, the maximum range of motion in three dimensions are (5.00, 5.00, 5.00) mm, (6.63, 17.25, 16.00) mm and (6.49, 16.24, 13.60) mm.
