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...

A Novel Group-Wise Non-Rigid Iterative Closest Point Shape Registration Algorithm with Temporal Smoothness Regularizations for Computing the Respiratory Motion of the Heart in Respiratory 4DCTs and Avoiding Random Cardiac Motion Artifacts

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: Cardiorespiratory motion management is crucial in stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy to define target margins and minimize cardiac toxicity. While respiratory 4DCT (r4DCT) images can infer ...

A Novel Groupwise Shape Deformable Registration Algorithm to Quantify the Respiratory Motion of the Heart in Respiratory 4DCTs While Accounting for Random Cardiac Motion Artifacts in the Respiratory 4DCTs

Authors: Anna E. Rodrigues, Yuhao Wang, Deshan Yang

Affiliation: Duke University, Department of Radiation Oncology, Duke University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Accurate motion margin definition in StereoTactic Arrhythmia Radiotherapy (STAR) requires accurate cardiorespiratory motion assessment. However, respiratory 4DCT (r4DCT) images are affected b...

AI-Powered Real-Time x-Ray Guided Tracking to Improve Stereotactic Arrythmia Radioablation: Proof of Principle

Authors: Vicky Chin, Mark Gardner, Nicholas Hindley, Paul J. Keall, Adam Mylonas

Affiliation: Image X Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Health, The University of Sydney

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Stereotactic Arrhythmia Radioablation (STAR) is a non-invasive method to treat cardiac arrhythmias by targeting aberrant electrical conduction regions in the heart. Targeting is challenging g...

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-...

Proton Vs Photon Therapy for Stereotactic Arrhythmia Radioablation of Ventricular Tachycardia

Authors: Chih-Wei Chang, Kristin A Higgins, Xiaojun Jiang, Pretesh Patel, Justin R. Roper, Keyur Shah, Sibo Tian, Zhen Tian, Yinan Wang, Xiaofeng Yang, Jun Zhou

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, City of Hope Cancer Center Atlanta, Emory University, University of Chicago, Department of Radiation Oncology and Winship Cancer Institute, Emory University

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a life-threatening arrhythmia commonly treated with catheter ablation; however, some cases remain refractory to conventional treatment. Stereotactic arrhythmia...

Registration of Radiation Simulation 3D Medical Imaging and Cardiac Electrophysiology of Porcine Left Ventricle Using a 17-Segment Model Framework.

Authors: Phillip Cuculich, Geoffrey D. Hugo, Nels C. Knutson, Luke Christian Marut, Eric D. Morris, Stacey Rentschler, Clifford Robinson, Christian Zemlin, Brian Zenger

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

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR) is an emerging treatment for ventricular tachycardia (VT) that uses radiation to modulate cardiac electrophysiology (EP) and reduce VT. Registratio...
