Abstract
Accurate dose definition is vital for ensuring optimal radiation therapy (RT) outcomes. The combination of ionizing radiation acoustic imaging (iRAI) and volumetric ultrasound imaging (US) holds the potential for real-time and precise determination of the radiation dose on anatomical structures. We developed an iRAI-US dual-modality system, utilizing a custom 2D matrix array transducer for iRAI and a commercial 2D MAT for US. The studies on phantoms quantified the system performance, and then the experiments using a rabbit liver model in vivo achieved online monitoring of dose on anatomy during RT in real time. These findings demonstrated the potential of iRAI-US combined imaging for personalized RT with improved efficacy and safety.
