It is carried out below in conjunction with method and device of the Fig. 1 to Fig. 6 to the small beam intensity in the determination radiotherapy system of the application Detailed description.
In the method for the sub-beam intensity in the determination radiotherapy system according to the application, for example, radiotherapy system may include Launched field F shown in multiple Fig. 3 (also referred to as wild), and each launched field has multiple sub-beam B.It is shown in Fig. 2 to penetrate source F packet Include 9 sub-beam B.For example, each launched field F by MLC (Multi-Leaf Collimato, multi-diaphragm collimator) be embodied as it is multiple Sub-beam B.Launched field F shown in Fig. 2 can be by including penetrating source and MCL realization in radiotherapy system.The source of penetrating can emit X-ray Or gamma-rays, i.e. launched field F are X-ray fields.As another example, positively charged ion (i.e. proton) can be emitted by penetrating source.But this Be merely exemplary, according to the application to penetrate source without being limited thereto.In one example, the number of the sub-beam B in each launched field F Can be same or different, and each sub-beam B can have different shapes.
Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3, in step sl, radiotherapy tissue PTV will be needed and needing the surrounding tissue around radiotherapy tissue OAR is divided into multiple voxels and determines radiological dose in each of multiple voxels.In the example depicted in fig. 3, it need to put It treats tissue PTV and is divided into multiple voxels, and surrounding tissue OAR is divided into around the multiple voxels for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV. That is, the three-D volumes that the voxel for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR to be divided can be equal to each other.Voxel is numerical data Minimum unit in three-dimensional space segmentation.20 launched field F are shown in Fig. 3, but this is merely exemplary.In multiple voxels Each radiological dose indicates the radiological dose that each voxel needs to receive.For example, the radiation for needing the need of radiotherapy tissue PTV to receive Dosage is greater than a certain predetermined value, and the radiological dose that the need of surrounding tissue OAR receive is less than a certain predetermined value.It is every in multiple voxels A radiological dose can be determined according to the CT image of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR is wanted.
In step s 2, according to each launched field F and sub-beam B relative to the position for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR Set and need the organizational information of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR to simulate each sub-beam B in multiple launched field F to each First unit dose of a voxel is contributed.
Need the organizational information of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR can be by needing radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR Computed tomography images (that is, CT image) obtain.For example, organizational information can be by based on reverse intensity modulated radiation therapy CT (planing computed tomography, computed tomography) device is drawn to obtain.Organizational information may include needing radiotherapy Organize volume, shape, position and the electron density information of the tissue of PTV and surrounding tissue OAR.Multiple launched field F and sub-beam B phase For needing the position of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR usually can artificially be configured.For example, the position of settable launched field F It sets so that the ray in launched field F passes through and is radiated at from the gap between voxel corresponding with surrounding tissue OAR as much as possible It needs on radiotherapy tissue PTV.But anyway be arranged launched field F position, surrounding tissue OAR receive dosage be impossible to for Zero.
First unit dose contribution be each sub-beam B under unit strength to the dose contribution of each voxel.
In step s3, first object function is established according to identified radiological dose and the contribution of the first unit dose. In step s 4, spare launched field P is selected from multiple launched field F by optimizing first object function.
In reverse intensity modulated radiation therapy, in the case where radiological dose and the contribution of the first unit dose determine, main purpose is The intensity of all sub-beam B in multiple launched field F is determined, so that the dosage that each voxel receives meets it as far as possible and should receive Radiological dose.
Therefore, objective function used in inverse intensity-modulated are as follows:
Wherein,In each element correspond to radiological dose determining in step sl, A expression determines in step s 2 The first unit dose contribution, vectorIn each element correspond to step S1 and step S2 in multiple launched field F a son The intensity of beam B, vectorThe intensity of all sub-beam B be can be by the concatenated vector of row.The solution of traditional objective functionIt is to make Obtain vectorSecond order norm obtain its minimum value all sub-beam B intensity by the concatenated vector of row.
Therefore, the position of launched field F and sub-beam B are introduced by conventional target letter according to the first object function of the application In number.
It, can be by be introduced into traditional objective function in multiple launched field F i-th according to the application embodiment The intensity of j-th of sub-beam B of launched field, to introduce the position of launched field F and sub-beam B.In other words, based on i-th launched field The intensity of j-th of sub-beam B and the mapping relations of corresponding launched field F and sub-beam B introduce the position of launched field F and sub-beam B indirectly It sets, and then further determines that F.
Further, ready for use penetrate is determined from multiple launched field F by experience different from doctor in traditional intensity modulated radiation therapy Compressed sensing is applied to reverse intensity modulated radiation therapy to select from multiple launched field F by wild (hereinafter referred to spare launched field), the application More accurate spare launched field P, so that it is determined that spare launched field P and including corresponding sub-beam B relative to needing combination radiotherapy group Knit the position of PTV and surrounding tissue OAR.
Basic goal due to establishing first object function is that several spare launched field P are selected from multiple launched field F, that is, While meeting the radiological dose to be implemented, the number of launched field F is reduced.
Therefore objective function (i.e. formula 1) base in the present processes, used in inverse intensity-modulated On plinth, it is based on compressive sensing theory, passes through the strong of the sub-beam B that is arranged so that sub-beam intensity set in each launched field F The sum of degree maximum value and the product of weight coefficient obtain its minimum value (minimum value can be preset value) and are used as restrictive condition, will be every The maximum of intensity of sub-beam B in a launched field F seeks the sparse of sampled signal as sampled signal, and then by compressed sensing Spare launched field P is chosen in Xie Laicong launched field F, wherein enable to need radiotherapy when sub-beam strength set contract in spare launched field P The radiological dose that tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR finally receives meets or closest to intensity modulated radiation therapy target (that is, pre-set Radiological dose).Therefore, compression sensing method is also considered as at signal according to the method for the application embodiment Application in reason.
On the one hand, compressed sensing is the technology for rebuilding sparse or compressible signal.The mathematics of sparse signal shows Comprising many close to zero or null coefficient when it is expressed in some domains.That is, if signal only limited non-zero is adopted Sampling point, and other sampled points be zero (or close to zero), then it is sparse for claiming signal.Efficiently use compressed sensing technology (i.e. The sparsity of signal to be processed) it can be used for reducing required measurement number of samples.Mathematically, intensity modulated radiation therapy Inverse Planning is similar In being signal processing problems wait ask in the case where " signal " in above-mentioned multiple launched field F (i.e. all existing launched field F).As above Described, Inverse Planning is an ill-conditioning problem, and usually there is the set of the spare launched field P of multiple groups (that is, from the multiple launched field F The set of the launched field of middle selection, such as rule of thumb selected by doctor) radiation for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV to need to receive can be generated Dosage, but in this case, surrounding tissue OAR may not can be made to receive least radiological dose.Therefore, in this application, lead to It crosses using the maximum of intensity of the sub-beam B in each launched field F as sampled signal, the sparse solution for seeking sampled signal comes from multiple Launched field F chooses spare launched field P, while enabling to the sub-beam intensity set in spare launched field P to need radiotherapy tissue PTV and week The radiological dose that tissue OAR finally receives is enclosed to meet or (such as meet formula as restrictive condition closest to intensity modulated radiation therapy target (1)).The number of nonzero value corresponds to the number of spare launched field P in striked sparse solution.
On the other hand, using the maximum of intensity of the sub-beam B in each launched field F as in the case where sampled signal, lead to Each single item in the obtained sparse solution of overcompression cognitive method can correspond to the maximum sub-beam intensity in a launched field F, so It is that zero item indicates that the intensity of all sub-beam B in corresponding launched field F is zero in sparse solution, i.e., it will be corresponding to this Launched field F be selected as spare launched field P.In this way, it can be achieved that the position of each single item and launched field F in sparse solution maps pass correspondingly System.
In addition, the number of settable alternative launched field P, such as weight coefficient are bigger, alternative launched field by setting weight coefficient The number of P is fewer.
It, can be by first object function component according to the application embodiment are as follows:
Wherein, p meets the restrictive condition of 0≤p≤1,In each element correspond to voxel in multiple voxels Radiological dose, A indicate the first unit dose contribution described above,In each element correspond to sub-beam intensity,It can be with It is the intensity of all sub-beam B by the concatenated vector of row.xijIndicate j-th of sub-beam of i-th of launched field in multiple launched field F Intensity,Indicate that maximum sub-beam intensity, β are weight coefficients in i-th of launched field in multiple launched field F.
The number of the alternative launched field P selected from multiple launched field F can be set by the way that the value of weight coefficient β is arranged.β value is got over Greatly, the number of alternative launched field P is fewer.The value of β is greater than zero.
According to presently filed embodiment, first object function (for example, formula (2)) can be optimized by global optimization approach, To obtain vectorVectorIn an element correspond to corresponding launched field F in corresponding sub-beam B intensity.That is, The intensity of each sub-beam B corresponds to unique sub-beam B in unique launched field F.Therefore, vector can be passed throughIn each element With the mapping relations of the sub-beam B in launched field F and launched field F, spare launched field P is selected from multiple launched field F.
According to the application embodiment, can by will be needed in first object function radiotherapy tissue PTV and around The voxel of tissue OAR, which distinguishes and weight coefficient is arranged, needs radiotherapy tissue PTV to determine that the radiological dose finally realized is closer Radiotherapy dosimetry or surrounding tissue OAR Radiotherapy dosimetry.
Therefore, according to the another exemplary embodiment of the application, first object function can further be constructed are as follows:
Wherein, p meets the restrictive condition of 0≤p≤1,In each element be multiple voxels in need combination radiotherapy group Knit the radiological dose of the corresponding voxel of PTV, APTVIndicate each sub-beam B under unit strength to need radiotherapy tissue PTV The unit dose of corresponding each voxel is contributed, and N indicates the quantity of the surrounding tissue, AOARkIndicate each sub-beam B in list The unit dose of each voxel corresponding with k-th of surrounding tissue OAR is contributed under the intensity of position,In each element correspond to The intensity of sub-beam B,The intensity of all sub-beam B be can be by the concatenated vector of row, xijIndicate i-th in multiple launched field F The intensity of j-th of sub-beam of a launched field,Indicate that maximum sub-beam is strong in i-th of launched field in multiple launched field F Degree, β is weight coefficient, λkFor weight coefficient
For example, the quantity of N is 6 in Fig. 3 into example shown in fig. 5, i.e., the quantity of surrounding tissue OAR is 6.It can pass through λ is setkNumerical value put to determine that the spare launched field P finally selected meets radiological dose more needed for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV Penetrate Radiotherapy dosimetry needed for dosage still more meets surrounding tissue OAR.
According to presently filed embodiment, first object function (for example, formula (3)) can be optimized by global optimization approach, To obtain vectorAnd then multiple spare launched field P are selected from multiple launched field F.
In the case that p in first object function (for example, formula (2) or formula (3)) is equal to 1, can by such as Newton method, The conventional iterative algorithm of gradient descent method, conjugate gradient method or quasi-Newton method optimizes first object function (for example, formula (2) Or formula (3)).
That is, in the case where 0≤p≤1, can by global optimization approach to first object function (for example, formula (2) or formula (3)) optimize, to obtain the globally optimal solution of objective function.Global optimization research is multivariable nonlinearity letter The characteristic and construction of globally optimal solution of the number on some constraint seek the calculation method of globally optimal solution, and solution side The theory property of method and calculating performance.For example, such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithm, TABU search, population can be used to calculate Method, the global optimization approach of ant group algorithm optimize first object function.But the application is without being limited thereto.
First object function (for example, in the case that p in formula (2) or formula (3) is equal to 1, can by such as Newton method, The iterative algorithm of gradient descent method, conjugate gradient method or quasi-Newton method optimizes first object function (for example, formula (2) or formula (3))。
In the method according to the embodiment of the application, in first object function (for example, formula (2) or formula (3)) In p be equal to 1 in the case where, will be in 1 rank norm in formula (6) or formula (7)Item is used as constraint condition, will Nonlinear problem is converted into linear problem, to be further reduced calculation amount.
By taking formula (2) as an example, that is, convert first object function are as follows:
Wherein, yiMeet yi≥xijRestrictive condition, T isThe quadratic form of item.
In formula (4),In each element correspond to the radiological dose of a voxel in multiple voxels, A indicates above The first unit dose contribution,In each element correspond to sub-beam intensity,It can be the strong of all sub-beam B Degree is by the concatenated vector of row, xijIndicate the intensity of j-th of sub-beam of i-th of launched field in multiple launched field F,It indicates Maximum sub-beam intensity, β are weight coefficients in i-th of launched field in multiple launched field F.
In this way, the iterative algorithms such as Newton method, gradient descent method can be passed through in the case where reducing calculation amount to target Function optimizes, to obtain vectorFurther, vector can be passed throughIn each element and launched field F and launched field F in Sub-beam B mapping relations, spare launched field P is selected from multiple launched field F.
Multiple launched field F (examples can be selected from 20 launched field F shown in Fig. 3 by step S3 and step S4 referring to Fig. 3 Such as, 3 launched field F) it is used as spare launched field P.
In step s 5, each sub-beam in spare launched field P is determined according to selected spare launched field P and organizational information B contributes the second unit dose of each voxel under unit strength.For example, according to each launched field F and sub-beam B relative to need The position of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR and radiotherapy tissue PTV and the organizational information of surrounding tissue OAR is needed to simulate The contribution of second unit dose.For example, being contributed by the second unit dose of Monte-carlo Simulation.Due to establishing first object Function (step S3) consideration enables to the sub-beam intensity set in spare launched field P to need radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue The radiological dose that OAR finally receives meets or closest to intensity modulated radiation therapy target as restrictive condition, therefore, passes through spare launched field P The the second unit dose contribution simulated enables to the result of Inverse Planning closer to ideal, i.e., the sub-beam finally acquired is strong Degree can make surrounding tissue OAR receive least radiological dose while making to need radiotherapy tissue PTV acceptance presupposition radiological dose. In step s 6, the second objective function is constructed according to the contribution of the second unit dose and radiological dose.
In presently filed embodiment, the second objective function can correspond to the conventional target letter with intensity modulated radiation therapy in the works Number, it may be assumed that
Wherein, A2Indicate the second unit dose contribution,In each element correspond to alternative launched field P in one Sub-beam intensity,All sub-beam intensity in alternative launched field P be can be by the concatenated vector of row,In each element pair Radiological dose described in Ying Yu.
In the step s 7, the intensity of the sub-beam B in spare launched field P is determined by optimizing the second objective function.For The case where two objective functions are formula (5), can optimize formula (5) by Newton method or gradient descent method.As the application's Global optimization approach can be used to optimize formula (5) for another example.But the application is without being limited thereto.
The spare launched field pair that the method that Fig. 4 shows the sub-beam intensity in the determination radiotherapy system by the application is selected Need the schematic diagram of the dose contribution of radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR.Fig. 5 be in intensity modulated radiation therapy method by user according to Schematic diagram of the spare launched field P that experience is selected to the dose contribution for needing radiotherapy tissue PTV and surrounding tissue OAR.
