Targeting at the setup errors and difficulties in positioning and tracking tumor areas during radiotherapy, imageguided accurate positioning and tracking system Kylin Ray-IGRT which combined dual stereotactic X-ray imaging and infrared tracking techniques is developed to achieve an accurate setup before each fractioned treatment and to track and control the tumor movement during treatment. The main functions of the system include real-time X-ray image acquisition, multimodality image registration and infrared-based tracking. Experiments and simulations, including the correction of setup errors based on dual X-ray imaging system as well as the infrared-based positioning and respiratory tracking experiments based on infrared signal, are carried out to verify the efficiency and accuracy of Kylin Ray-IGRT. The validation results show that the positioning accuracy of Kylin Ray-IGRT meets the clinical requirement, providing an efficient platform and technology base for the further study on adaptive radiotherapy key technologies and algorithms.
