Patent number: 12274895Abstract: Techniques for adjusting radiotherapy treatment for a patient in real time are provided. The techniques include operations comprising: obtaining, during delivery of a radiotherapy treatment fraction to a patient, one or more images of the patient at a first rate; generating patient motion information at a second rate based on the one or more images obtained at the first rate; receiving, during delivery of the radiotherapy treatment fraction, radiotherapy treatment device settings at a third rate; computing, during delivery of the radiotherapy treatment fraction, dose delivered to the patient with a first level of accuracy based on the generated patient motion information and the radiotherapy treatment device settings; and determining, during delivery of the radiotherapy treatment fraction, a real-time measure of accumulated dose delivered to the patient with a second greater level of accuracy than the first level of accuracy using one or more prior dose computations.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2019Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: Elekta AB (publ)Inventors: David Andreas Tilly, Peter Kimstrand, Petter Ericson, Nina Terese Tilly

Patent number: 11020615Abstract: Systems and methods for calculating radiotherapy dose distribution are provided. The systems and methods include operations for receiving data representing at least one of particle trajectories or a dose deposition pattern in a simulated delivery of a radiotherapy plan; applying a dose calculation process to the received data to generate a first radiotherapy dose distribution having a first level of detail; and processing the first radiotherapy dose distribution using a trained machine learning technique to generate a second radiotherapy dose distribution having a second level of detail that enhances the first level of detail.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: June 1, 2021Assignee: Elekta AB (publ)Inventors: Markus Eriksson, Jens Olof Sjölund, Linn Öström, David Andreas Tilly, Peter Kimstrand, Jonas Anders Adler

Patent number: 8462796Abstract: Method for exchanging information among digital units in a distributed system, with digital units being defined by at least a master node and slave nodes, involves transferring information references from a master node to slave nodes, the information references being sampled with sampling time corresponding to a cycle time period defined by a clock value of the master node. The method also involves estimating the number of the information references sampled arrived to the slave node from the master nodes during a periodic reference time interval, and using the number to recalculate the master clock value, so that the slave nodes are able to reconstruct master node information references during a following reference time interval.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2006Date of Patent: June 11, 2013Assignee: Ima Industria Macchine Automatiche S.p.A.Inventors: Leonardo Potenza, Graziano Mazzuchetti, Carlo Rossi, Andrea Tilli, Pierantonio Ragazzini
