사이버나이프를 이용한 두경부와 체부 등의 정위방사선수술에서는 목표점의 식별 및 위치 추적에 대하여 높은 정확성을 요구한다. 본 연구에서는 사이버나이프의 targeting의 정확성을 평가하고자 한다. 사이버나이프의 targeting의 정확성을 평가하기 위하여 두상 팬텀을 사용하였다. 환자 치료시와 동일한 CT 영상 프로토콜로 두상 팬텀의 영상을 얻어 치료계획을 세웠다. 팬텀에 radiochromic 필름을 삽입한 뒤 수립된 치료계획에 맞춰 팬텀에 방사선을 조사하였다. 방사선 조사시 위치 추적은 skull과 fiducial 추적의 두 가지 방법을 사용하였다. 방사선에 조사된 radiochromic 필름을 분석하여 정확성을 평가하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 실시간 영상유도 기술을 사용하는 사이버나이프는 약 1 mm의 targeting 에러를 보였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of Surface-Guided Patient Setup by comparing the patient positioning accuracy when image-guided radiation therapy was used for Markerless patients(unmarked on the skin) using Surface-Guided Patient Setup and Marker patients(marked on the skin) using Laser-Based Patient Setup. Materials And Methods: The position error during IGRT was compared between a Markerless patient initially set up with SGPS using an optical surface scanning system using three cameras and a Marker patient initially set up with LBPS that aligns the laser with the marker drawn on the patient's skin. Both SGPS and LBPS were performed on 20 prostate cancer patients and 10 Stereotactic Radiation Surgery patients, respectively, and SGPS was performed on an additional 60 breast cancer patients. All were performed IGRT using CBCT or OBI. Position error of 6 degrees of freedom was obtained using Auto-Matching System, and comparison and analysis were performed using Offline-Review in the treatment planning system. Result: The difference between the root mean square (RMS) of SGPS and LBPS in prostate cancer patients was Vrt -0.02cm, Log -0.02cm, Lat 0.01cm, Pit -0.01°, Rol -0.01°, Rtn -0.01°, SRS patients was Vrt 0.02cm, Log -0.05cm, Lat 0.00cm, Pit -0.30°, Rol -0.15°, Rtn -0.33°. there was no significant difference between the two regions. According to the IGRT standard of breast cancer patients, RMS was Vrt 0.26, Log 0.21, Lat 0.15, Pit 0.81, Rol 0.49, Rtn 0.59. Conclusion:. As a result of this study, the position error value of SGPS compared to LBPS did not show a significant difference between prostate cancer patients and SRS patients. In the case of additionally performed SGPS breast cancer patients, the position error value was not large based on IGRT. Therefore, it is considered that it will be useful to replace LBPS with SGPS, which has the great advantage of not requiring patient skin marking..

The purpose of this study is to evaluate utility of rotating adjustment using Xsight spine tracking system in 3D DOF location adjusting method, to minimize error between 6D DOF and 3D DOF in fiducial tracking system. In this study, the result of 6D DOF target location error is $0.124{\pm}0.058mm$, using fiducial inside tumor 3D DOF $0.673{\pm}0.142mm$, outside tumor $1.126{\pm}0.253mm$, apply with Xsight spine tracking system 3D DOF $0.542{\pm}0.103mm$. As the experiment shows, it was demonstrated that rotating adjustment through Xsight spine tracking system is valuable in case of treatment in 3D DOF location error that makes increasing accuracy and dose distribution each approximately 48% and 3%. In accordance with result of this study is useful rotation.

This study developed a portable respiratory training device to improve breathing stability, which is an important element in using the CyberKnife Synchrony respiratory tracking device, one of the typical Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (SRT) devices. It produced an interface for users to be able to select one of two displays, a graph type and a bar type, supported an auditory system that helps them expect next respiration by improving a sense of rhythm of their respiratory period, and provided comfortable respiratory inducement. By targeting 5 applicants and applying individual respiratory period detected through a self-developed program, it acquired signal data of 'guide respiration' that induces breathing through signal data gained from 'free respiration' and an auditory system, and evaluated the usability by comparing deviation average values of respiratory period and respiratory amplitude. It could be identified that respiratory period decreased $55.74{\pm}0.14%$ compared to free respiration, and respiratory amplitude decreased $28.12{\pm}0.10%$ compared to free respiration, which confirmed the consistency and stability of respiratory. SBRT, developed based on these results, using the portable respiratory training device, for liver cancer or lung cancer, is evaluated to be able to help reduce delayed treatment time due to respiratory instability and improve treatment accuracy, and if it could be applied to developing respiratory training applications targeting an android-based portable device in the future, even use convenience and economic efficiency are expected.
