| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to predict head and neck cancer patients' body shrinkage and weight loss throughout radiotherapy duration, from daily cone-beam CT (CBCT) image sets.
In the first year of the research, hyper-parameter optimization of deformable image registration (DIR), in order to acquire accurate deformation vector fields (DVFs) which contain information about patients' body shrinkage, was implemented. Then, in the second year, principal component vectors (PCVs) were acquired using principal component analysis (PCA) of ten DVFs from earlier 11 treatment fractions, and predicted DVF from the first fraction to the 23rd has successfully reconstructed using an average DVF and nine PCVs.
