| Abstract | Purpose: To develop an internal target margin (ITV) determination framework (or decision-supporting framework) for treating multiple lung metastases using CyberKnife Synchrony with intraoperatively implanted fiducial markers (IIFMs). The feasibility of using non-ideally implanted fiducial markers (a limited number and/or far from a target) for tracking-based lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) was investigated. Methods: In the developed margin determination framework, an optimal set of IIFMs was determined to minimize a tracking uncertainty-specific ITV (ITVtracking) margin (margin required to cover target-to-marker motion discrepancy), i.e., minimize the motion discrepancies between gross tumor volume (GTV) and the selected set of fiducial markers (FMs). The developed margin determination framework was evaluated in 17 patients with lung metastases. To automatically calculate the respiratory motions of the FMs, a template matching-based FM tracking algorithm was developed, and GTV motion was manually measured. Furthermore, during-treatment motions of the selected FMs were analyzed using log files and compared with those calculated using 4D CTs. Results: For 41 of 42 lesions in 17 patients (97.6%), an optimal set of the IIFMs was successfully determined, requiring an ITVtracking margin less than 5 mm. The template matching-based FM tracking algorithm calculated the FM motions with a sub-millimeter accuracy compared with the manual measurements. The patient respiratory motions during treatment were, on average, significantly smaller than those measured at simulation for the patient cohort considered. Conclusion: Use of the developed margin determination framework employing CyberKnife Synchrony with a limited number of IIFMs is feasible for lung SABR. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
