- W2771363044 abstract "By collimating the photons scattered when a megavoltage therapy beam interacts with the patient, a Compton-scatter image may be formed without the delivery of an extra dose. To characterize and assess the potential of the technique, an analytical model for simulating scatter images was developed and validated against Monte Carlo (MC). For three phantoms, the scatter images collected during irradiation with a 6 MV flattening-filter-free therapy beam were simulated. Images, profiles, and spectra were compared for different phantoms and different irradiation angles. The proposed analytical method simulates accurate scatter images up to 1000 times faster than MC. Minor differences between MC and analytical simulated images are attributed to limitations in the isotropic superposition/convolution algorithm used to analytically model multiple-order scattering. For a detector placed at 90° relative to the treatment beam, the simulated scattered photon energy spectrum peaks at 140–220 keV, and 40–50% of the photons are the result of multiple scattering. The high energy photons originate at the beam entrance. Increasing the angle between source and detector increases the average energy of the collected photons and decreases the relative contribution of multiple scattered photons. Multiple scattered photons cause blurring in the image. For an ideal 5 mm diameter pinhole collimator placed 18.5 cm from the isocenter, 10 cGy of deposited dose (2 Hz imaging rate for 1200 MU min−1 treatment delivery) is expected to generate an average 1000 photons per mm2 at the detector. For the considered lung tumor CT phantom, the contrast is high enough to clearly identify the lung tumor in the scatter image. Increasing the treatment beam size perpendicular to the detector plane decreases the contrast, although the scatter subject contrast is expected to be greater than the megavoltage transmission image contrast. With the analytical method, real-time tumor tracking may be possible through comparison of simulated and acquired patient images." @default.
