Abstract:
Abstract: Objective To verify the accuracy and clinical feasibility of GPU-accelerated collapsed cone convolution algorithm for dose calculation. Methods The GPU-accelerated collapsed cone convolution algorithm was tested based on the national standards YY 0775, YY/T 0889 and some clinical cases with the treatment planning system KylinRay-TPSe as platform. In the test by the national standard YY 0775, the dose at a specified calculation point in a water phantom under specific irradiation geometrical condition was calculated and compared with a reference dose. In the test by the national standard YY/T 0889, the dose at a specific point or plane on the solid water phantom in intensity-modulated radiotherapy plan was calculated and compared with the dose value measured in the experiment. The clinical case test was carried out on 5 clinical cases of head and neck tumor, 5 of chest and abdomen tumor and 5 of pelvic tumor. The patients treatment plan information was exported from the Pinnacle3 TPS and imported into KylinRay-TPSe, and the dose distribution was calculated with GPU-accelerated collapsed cone convolution algorithm. The dosimetric parameters of target areas and organs-at-risk were compared with the calculation results of Pinnacle3 TPS by t-test, and the 2D gamma passing rates of the isocenter plane and the 3D gamma passing rates were compared. Results The GPU-accelerated collapsed cone convolution dose algorithm met the accuracy requirements of the national standards YY 0775 and YY/T 0889. In the clinical case test, there was no statistically significant difference in the dosimetric parameters of target areas and organs-at-risk ([P>0.05]), and the 2D gamma passing rates of the isocenter plane and the 3D gamma passing rates were above 95.1% and 95.0%. Conclusion The GPU-accelerated collapsed cone convolution algorithm has high dose calculation accuracy and meets the requirements for clinical treatment.
