| Research Abstract |
Many respiratory patterns were collected from Cancer Institute Hospital of JFCR. A respiratory motion phantom was developed, whose motion could simulate the respiratory pattern of patient respiratory waveform. In order to conduct high accurate four-dimensional treatment in radiation oncology, we developed a software to monitor consecutive changes of patient's body in intra-fractional treatment. We evaluated the software by using the motion phantom and 6 healthy volunteers. We have shown that the software is sufficient for a clinical-use, and can improve respiratory treatments by using the software.
