Purpose: To improve the dose and LET distribution in the IMPTLET, we introduce a new optimization algorithm to search for the optimal beam orientation and count through the arc trajectory (BOC-IMPTLET). Methods: We introduce kmeans clustering analysis in the BOC-IMPTLET algorithm by analyzing the distribution of LET in the target from the full arc trajectory. The optimal of cluster count was used as beam count, which was determined based on the SSE (Sum of Square Error) value and the angle of the corresponding centroid of each cluster was used as beam orientation, respectively. The BOC-IMPTLET algorithm was implemented in the …

Purpose: To assess the efficiency improvement of SPArc compared to IMPT in proton clinical operation.Methods: A random clinical operation day at a proton therapy center with a two room system. Aa total of 10 Head & Neck cancer cases treated on Jan 6th, 2021were selected and SPArc plans were generated for all the cases with similar target coverage and dose constraints of organ at risk (OARs). 3% range uncertainties and 3mm setup uncertainties were applied for robust optimization. The log files of clinical IMPT were exported to calculate true treatment delivery time. The machine-specific delivery sequence model was utilized to …

Purpose: Introduce an experimental approach to model a precise prototype arc system and quantitatively assess its efficiency improvement in the routine proton clinical operation. Methods: The SPArc delivery sequence model(DSMSPArc) includes two kinds of parameters:(1) mechanical parameters. (2) irradiation parameters. Log files and an independent gantry inclinometer were used to derive the irradiation parameters through a series of test plans. The in-house DSMSPArc was established by fitting both mechanical and irradiation parameters. Eight SPArc plans from different disease sites were used to validate the model’s accuracy. To assess the treatment efficiency improvement, the DSMSPArc was used to simulate the SPArc …

Purpose: To address the challenges of generating a deliverable and efficient spot-scanning proton arc (SPArc) plan for a proton therapy system. We developed a novel SPArc optimization algorithm (SPArcDMSP) by directly incorporating machinespecific parameters such as mechanical constraints and delivery sequence. Method and Material: A SPArc delivery sequence model (DSMarc) was built based on the machine-specific parameters of the prototype arc delivery system IBA ProteusONEt. The SPArcDMSP resamples and adjusts each control point’s delivery speed based on the DSMarc calculation through the iterative approach (Fig1). Users could set the expected delivery time and gantry max acceleration as a mechanical constraint …

Radiation therapy is one of the main cancer treatments that uses radiation to kill cancer cells. Proton therapy, or proton radiotherapy, is a type of particle therapy that uses a beam of protons to irradiate tumor volume. Beaumont proton therapy center research group invented the first robust and delivery-efficient spot-scanning proton arc (SPArc) therapy in 2016. Based on our beam modeling platform, we have found that the spot switching time (SSWT) is proportional to spot numbers. We aim to develop a direct mathematical optimization method to reduce the spot numbers for SPArc based on an independent optimization method to reduce …
