This invention provides a method applied for the new dynamic arc radiotherapy treatment planning to calculate an optimal arc angle. With this invention, an operator without rich experience is able to reach the expected low dose in lungs easily and quickly. This invention can not only estimate the distribution of low radiation dose in lungs but also reduce the shortcomings like consumption of time and inaccuracy caused by manual trial and error.

Method for calculating an optimal arc angle of dynamic arc radiotherapy by volume-based algorithms

A system of mapping a cardiac image of single heart chamber and a method thereof are disclosed. In the system and method thereof, one heart chamber (such as a left atrium, a left ventricular, a right atrium, right ventricular or aortic structure) can be selected in a 3D-based cardiac image (such as a CT or MRI image), and slices of the selected heart chamber are reconstructed and unwrapped by a 2D mapping visual display manner. The visual display and required angle alignment planes for subsequent analysis will be adjusted and achieved by operator manually, with specific global and regional architectural analysis performed by automatic algorithm.
