Apparatus And Method For Radiation Distribution Mapping

View page
US Patent:
8133167, Mar 13, 2012
Filed:
Dec 28, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/647920
Inventors:
Paul Gueye - Hampton VA, US
Cynthia Keppel - Hampton VA, US
Lawrence Tynes - Hampton VA, US
Douglas Kieper - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Hampton University - Hampton VA
International Classification:
A61N 5/00
US Classification:
600 7
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for in vivo and ex vivo control, detection and measurements of radiation in brachytherapy accomplished through scintillating material detection. One example includes scintillating fibers placed along a delivery guide such as a catheter for measuring applied radiation levels during brachytherapy treatments, sensing locations of a radiation source or providing feedback of sensed radiation. The catheter may also be a mammosite type catheter. The scintillating fibers provide light output levels correlating to the levels of radiation striking the fibers. The output may then be used to measure and compute radiation distribution maps using Monte Carlo reconstruction simulation. Adjustments to a radiation treatment may be made as needed based on actual and measured applied dosages. Characteristics of a radiation source may also be measured using scintillating materials.

US Patent:
8568285, Oct 29, 2013
Filed:
Jul 22, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/841891
Inventors:
Cynthia E. Keppel - Norfolk VA, US
Paul Gueye - Hampton VA, US
Christopher Sinesi - Virginia Beach VA, US
Assignee:
Hampton University - Hampton VA
International Classification:
A61N 5/00
US Classification:
600 7
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for in vivo and ex vivo control, detection and measurement of radiation in therapy, diagnostics, and related applications accomplished through scintillating fiber detection. One example includes scintillating fibers placed along a delivery guide such as a catheter for measuring applied radiation levels during radiotherapy treatments, sensing locations of a radiation source, or providing feedback of sensed radiation. Another option is to place the fibers into a positioning device such as a balloon, or otherwise in the field of the radiation delivery. The scintillating fibers provide light output levels correlating to the levels of radiation striking the fibers and comparative measurement between fibers can be used for more extensive dose mapping. Adjustments to a radiation treatment may be made as needed based on actual and measured applied dosages as determined by the fiber detectors. Characteristics of a radiation source may also be measured using scintillating materials.
