초록

목 적: 영상유도를 통한 6DoF Couch의 이동 정확성의 검증을 위해 QA Set을 제작하였고, 그 유용성을 평가하였다. 대상 및 방법: 6DoF Couch와 CBCT가 설치된 두 대의 선형가속기를 대상으로 하였으며, 자체 제작한 YCC QA Set을 이용하여 수평수직(Translation; TX, TY, TZ)과 회전(Rotation, Pitch; RX, Roll; RY, Yaw; RZ) 여섯방향의 Off-Set 값이 설정된 Penta-Guide Phantom의 CBCT영상을 각각 15회에 걸쳐 획득하였다. 이를 통해 기준영상(Reference Image)과 보정영상(Registration Image)을 비교하였으며, 보정된 6DoF Couch의 이동정확성을 실측하여 오차를 분석하였다. 결 과: 기준영상과 보정영상의 Air Cavity에 해당하는 Pixel들은 모두 30에서 66 사이에 포함되어 보정정확도가 높게 나타났다. 6DoF Couch의 Off-set의 보정 결과 값과 실측치의 비교에서 수평수직방향의 오차는 TX방향은 $0.25{\pm}.18mm$ TY방향은 $0.25{\pm}.25mm$ TZ방향에서 $0.36{\pm}.2mm$로 나타났다. 그리고 회전방향의 오차는 RX방향은 $0.18{\pm}.08^{\circ}$ RY방향은 $0.26{\pm}.09^{\circ}$ RZ방향에서 $0.11{\pm}.08^{\circ}$로서, 임의의 값에 대하여 정확하게 보정되었다. 결 론: YCC QA Set을 이용해 매우 간단한 방법으로 6DoF Couch의 수평수직방향뿐 아니라 회전방향의 오차에 대한 검증을 할 수 있었으며, 이는 6DoF Couch의 Daily IGRT QA를 수행함에 있어서 유용할 것이라 사료된다.

Purpose: A QA Set was established to verify the movement accuracy of image-guided 6DoF Couch and to evaluate its usefulness. Materials and Methods: Two sets of linear accelerators equipped with 6DoF Couch and CBCT were used. Using the established QA Set, each CBCT image was obtained over 15 times through the Penta-Guide Phantom installed with off-set shift values along six translational (Translation; TX, TY, TZ) and rotational (Rotation, Pitch; RX, Roll; RY, Yaw; RZ) directions. Using this method, we compared the reference image and the registration image, and we analyzed the error calculated by measuring the positional accuracy of the modified 6DoF Couch. Results: The Air Cavity corresponding to the Pixel of the reference image and the registration image were all contained between 30 and 66, and the revealing high registration accuracy. Error between the modified off-set value of 6DoF Couch and the measured value along translational directions were $0.25{\pm}0.18mm$ in the TX direction, $0.25{\pm}0.25mm$ in the TY direction, and $0.36{\pm}0.2mm$ in the TZ direction. Misalignments along the rotational axis were $0.18{\pm}0.08^{\circ}$ in the RX direction, $0.26{\pm}0.09^{\circ}$ in the RY direction, and $0.11{\pm}0.08^{\circ}$ in the RZ direction, it was corrected precisely for any value. Conclusion: Using the YCC QA Set, we were able to verify the error of 6DoF Couch along both the translational and rotational directions in a very simple method. This system would be useful in performing Daily IGRT QA of 6DoF Couch.
