The feasibility of a deep learning-based markerless real-time tumor tracking (RTTT) method was retrospectively studied with orthogonal kV X-ray images and clinical tracking records acquired during lung cancer treatment.Ten patients with lung cancer treated with marker-implanted RTTT were included. The prescription dose was 50 Gy in four fractions, using seven- to nine-port non-coplanar static beams. This corresponds to 14-18 X-ray tube angles for an orthogonal X-ray imaging system rotating with the gantry. All patients underwent 10 respiratory phases four-dimensional computed tomography. After a data augmentation approach, for each X-ray tube angle of a patient, 2250 digitally reconstructed radiograph (DRR) images with gross tumor volume (GTV) contour labeled were obtained. These images were adopted to train the patient and X-ray tube angle-specific GTV contour prediction model. During the testing, the model trained with DRR images predicted GTV contour on X-ray projection images acquired during treatment. The predicted three-dimensional (3D) positions of the GTV were calculated based on the centroids of the contours in the orthogonal images. The 3D positions of GTV determined by the marker-implanted RTTT during the treatment were considered as the ground truth. The 3D deviations between the prediction and the ground truth were calculated to evaluate the performance of the model.The median GTV volume and motion range were 7.42 (range, 1.18-25.74) cmThe evaluation results and calculation efficiency show the proposed deep learning-based markerless RTTT method may be feasible for patients with lung cancer. |
