Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Cone Beam CT of the Head and Neck' presents normal anatomy of the head using photographs of cadavers and CBCT images in sagittal, axial and coronal planes with the anatomic structures and landmarks clearly labelled. Important structures and regions are presented in detailed view. The photographs of human tissue (based on slicing of cadaveric heads) combined with CBCT images have not been used previously for an atlas of anatomy. Scanned objects with the possibility of 3D reconstruction present better understanding of the anatomy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern image-guided surgery aids minimally-invasive, high-precision procedures that increase efficacy of treatment. This thesis investigates two research aims to improve precision and integration of intraoperative cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging in guidance of head and neck (H&N) surgery. First, marker configurations were examined to identify arrangements that minimize target registration error (TRE). Best arrangements minimized the distance between the configuration centroid and surgical target while maximizing marker separation. Configurations of few markers could minimized TRE with more markers providing improved uniformity. Second, an algorithm for automatic registration of image and world reference frames was pursued to streamline integration of CBCT with real-time tracking and provide automatic updates per scan. Markers visible to the tracking and imaging systems are automatically co-localized and registered with equivalent accuracy and superior reproducibility compared to conventional registration. Such work helps the implementation of CBCT in H&N surgery to maximize surgical precision and exploit intraoperative image guidance.

Download or read book Optimization of Cone Beam CT Imaging in the Head Neck and Pelvic Regions written by Michaela Lang and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of an imaging modality, such as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for verification and target location immediately prior to a radiotherapy fraction, is essential in modern radiotherapy.Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) enables assessment and control of uncertainties in patient positioning, reveals internal organ motion and deformation, and paves the way towards adaptive radiotherapy (ART). However, using CBCT images as an imaging modality leads to an additional radiation dose burden for patients.The aim of this master thesis was to optimize CBCT acquisition and reconstruction protocols with regard to image quality and dose for treatments in the head and neck and pelvic regions, and to analyze the trend of specific imaging parameters. A second goal was to check long-term stability of the radiation output of a selected imaging protocol.If the image quality is optimized, the visualization of anatomical details and the accuracy of the image guidance can be improved. Nevertheless, it is very challenging to find a compromise between better image quality and lower dose for the patients. An improvement in image quality usually results in higher exposure and much longer acquisition and reconstruction time of the image data, which is not beneficial for the patients.By using an F1 filter in the head and neck regions, the dose burden for patients can be reduced by approximately 40 % (average value of two LINACs). The image quality is also slightly improved by the exchanged filter, as a slightly higher SNR could be determined, which is desirable. Therefore, an implementation of an imaging protocol with this filter into clinical routine should be considered.In the pelvic regions, a dose reduction can be achieved by increasing the gantry speed when taking CBCT images. Although the results showed a slightly lower image quality, the faster rotation of the gantry provides better patient comfort, as the time on the treatment table can be reduced by almost one minute.
