Trial Outcomes & Findings for VisionRT-based Deep Inspiration Breath-hold (DIBH) Respiratory Motion Management Strategy, A Pilot Study for Thoracic and Abdominal Tumors (NCT NCT04686500)

NCT ID: NCT04686500

Last Updated: 2024-11-25

Results Overview

VRT-DIBH (VisionRT-based deep inspiration breath-hold) feasibility will be evaluated using descriptive statistics to explore the geometry accuracy and to characterize tumor motion/surface stability and repeatability during treatment. CT images of the treatment site, as well as kV projections and VRT surface images, will be taken and analyzed for this purpose. The trajectory data and kV projection data were analyzed in Matlab. In the kV images, the diaphragm was segmented and used for tracking of the BH position. This was done using several steps including: derivatives, polynomial curve fitting and high pass filtering. The correlation was then measured using a Pearson correlation. Correlation of each breath hold was taken and averaged.

Deep Inspiration Breath-hold (DIBH) Respiratory Motion
DIBH qualified patient will experience one high-resolution CT scan as SOC and additional 3 low resolution/lower dose CT scans to further investigate inter-DIBH patient surface and tumor position stability and repeatability Tidal volume measured by spirometer and DIBH surface from CT image: The SOC DIBH CT scan will be transferred to Eclipse treatment planning system for treatment planning. Tidal volume measured by spirometer and DIBH surface from CT image will be used as a reference surface for patient treatment initial setup. CBCT will be acquired before each fractional treatment for the patient alignment before beam delivery.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month

Population: Outcomes for secondary objectives have been combined in this contingency table between motion range of kV and motion of superior-inferior and anterior-posterior surfaces.

To assess the necessary margin for a target, the amount of surface and diaphragm motion was analyzed. For each x-ray image the diaphragm motion and corresponding surface motion were recorded. These motions were then categorized based on their size and researchers counted how often these movements fell within the specified motion ranges.
