  • Publication number: 20240061908
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for determining a probability distribution of a three-dimensional point in a template feature map matching a three-dimensional point in space. A dual-domain target structure tracking end-to-end system receives projection data in one dimension or two dimensions and a three-dimensional simulation image. The end-to-end system extracts a template feature map from the simulation image using segmentation. The end-to-end system extracts features from the projection data, transforms the features of the projection data into three-dimensional space, and sequences the three-dimensional space to generate a three-dimensional feature map. The end-to-end system compares the template feature map to the generated three-dimensional feature map, determining an instantaneous probability distribution of the template feature map occurring in the three-dimensional feature map.

  • Publication number: 20230190221
    Abstract: A universal phantom includes a first phantom and a second phantom. The first phantom comprises a plurality of radiation markers. The second phantom comprises a plurality of optical markers. The second phantom is fixedly attachable to the first phantom in a predetermined position. A calibration method employs a universal phantom to consolidate the tasks of determining the isocenter of a radiation machine, calibrating optical devices, and registering the optical devices in a radiation coordinate system with origin at the isocenter.
