4DCT Contrast Protocol for Cardiac Radioablation

Authors: Jeremy S. Bredfeldt, Cindy I. Hancox, Arianna Liles, Alex Marques, Usha Tedrow

Affiliation: Department of Cardiology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Department of Radiation Oncology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) can be treated using cardiac radioablation. 4DCT simulation is commonly used, however, contrast injection timing is challenging. This study aimed to develop a pro...

A Dynamic Reconstruction and Motion Estimation Framework for Cardiorespiratory Motion-Resolved Real-Time Volumetric MR Imaging (DREME-MR)

Authors: Jie Deng, Xiaoxue Qian, Hua-Chieh Shao, You Zhang

Affiliation: Medical Artificial Intelligence and Automation (MAIA) Lab, Department of Radiation Oncology, UT Southwestern Medical Center, Medical Artificial Intelligence and Automation (MAIA) Laboratory, Department of Radiation Oncology, UT Southwestern Medical Center

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Based on a 3D pre-treatment MRI scan, we developed DREME-MR to jointly reconstruct the reference patient anatomy and a data-driven, patient-specific cardiorespiratory motion model. Via a moti...

A Motion Analysis of Cardiac Substructures for Guiding Stereotactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy Motion Management

Authors: Hongyu An, Phillip Cuculich, H Michael Gach, Yao Hao, Trevor McKeown, Clifford Robinson, Yuhao Wang, Deshan Yang

Affiliation: Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Washington University School of Medicine, Duke University, Department of Radiation Oncology, Duke University, Washington University in St. Louis, Department of Radiation Oncology, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis

Abstract Preview: Purpose: This study investigated cardiac motion characteristics of ventricular tachycardia patients to support patient-specific motion management for stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR) treatm...

An Image Registration-Based Motion Correction Procedure to Recover Joint Cardiac and Respiratory Motion from Respiratory 4DCT

Authors: Phillip Cuculich, Geoffrey D. Hugo, Xiwen Li, Michael T. Prusator, Clifford Robinson, Pamela Samson, Xue Wu

Affiliation: Washington University School of Medicine in St Louis, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, University of Utah, WashU Medicine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR) requires compensation for both respiratory and cardiac motions of the heart. Respiratory 4DCT scans implicitly include cardiac motion and cycle-to-...

BEST IN PHYSICS IMAGING: Population-Based Cardio-Respiratory Motion Model to Simulate 4D CT Angiography and 2D+t Fluoroscopy for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Authors: Debarghya China, Junghoon Lee, Ali Uneri

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology and Molecular Radiation Sciences, Johns Hopkins University, Department of Biomedical Engineering, Johns Hopkins University, Johns Hopkins Univ

Abstract Preview: Purpose: This study aims to develop a population-based cardio-respiratory motion model and apply it to patient-specific 3D CTA to simulate 4D CTA and 2D+t fluoroscopy sequences. The developed motion m...

Comparison of Dose Metrics to Critical Heart Substructures for Different Planning Techniques, and Scan Techniques for Right Sided Breast Irradiation

Authors: Wesley A. Belcher, Aidan Burke, Matthew Green, Taylor Stamey

Affiliation: ECU Health, East Carolina University Brody School of Medicine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using deep inhalation breath hold (DIBH) vs. free breathing (FB) and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) vs. 3D for right-sid...

Expert Verification of AI-Generated Cardiac Substructures and Dosimetric Differences between Auto-Contoured and Manually Delineated Contours

Authors: Stephen R. Bowen, Richard Cheng, Kylie Kang, Janice Kim, Ana Paula Santos Lima, Dominic A. Maes, Juergen Meyer, Karen Ordovas, Kerry Reding

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Washington, Department of Radiation Oncology, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, University of Washington, Department of Radiology, University of Washington, Division of Cardiology, University of Washington, Department of Biobehavioral Nursing and Health Informatics, School of Nursing, University of Washington

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based auto-segmentation tools can increase the efficacy and reproducibility of radiotherapy (RT) treatment planning. This study evaluates the quality of AI-genera...

Mask-Based Synthetic Contrast-Enhanced CT Generation for Advancing Data Limited Segmentation on Cardiac Substructure

Authors: Jin Sung Kim, Chanwoong Lee, Young Hun Yoon

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, Yonsei Cancer Center, Heavy Ion Therapy Research Institute, Yonsei University College of Medicine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Chest contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) serves as a valuable tool for cardiac imaging, but its lack of detailed anatomical visualization limits its utility in segmentation tasks. While CECT offers ...
