Real-Time 2D-3D Deformable Registration with Deep Learning and Application to Lung Radiotherapy Targeting - 2019

Real-Time 2d-3d Deformable Registration With Deep Learning And Application To Lung Radiotherapy Targeting

Research Area:  Machine Learning

Abstract:

Radiation therapy presents a need for dynamic tracking of a target tumor volume. Fiducial markers such as implanted gold seeds have been used to gate radiation delivery but the markers are invasive and gating significantly increases treatment time. Pretreatment acquisition of a respiratory correlated 4DCT allows for determination of accurate motion tracking which is useful in treatment planning. We design a patient-specific motion subspace and a deep convolutional neural network to recover anatomical positions from a single fluoroscopic projection in real-time. We use this deep network to approximate the nonlinear inverse of a diffeomorphic deformation composed with radiographic projection. This network recovers subspace coordinates to define the patient-specific deformation of the lungs from a baseline anatomic position. The geometric accuracy of the subspace deformations on real patient data is similar to accuracy attained by original image registration between individual respiratory-phase image volumes.
