Background:

Permanent prostate brachytherapy lacks dynamic dosimetry tools, leading to preventable issues in patient care.
Accurate real-time dose assessment is crucial for optimizing treatment outcomes in prostate cancer management.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and validate an accessible dynamic dosimetry system for permanent prostate brachytherapy.
To address the need for readily adoptable tools that improve prostate cancer patient care.

Main Methods:

Utilized ultrasound scanner and mobile non-isocentric C-arm with a marker-based fiducial.
Developed robust algorithms for seed segmentation, fiducial detection, seed reconstruction, and image registration.
Validated the system on a study involving 25 prostate cancer patients.

Main Results:

Demonstrated the feasibility of dynamic dosimetry using accessible hardware.
Achieved accurate dose computation with minimal manual intervention.
System validation showed excellent performance in a clinical setting.

Conclusions:

The proposed system enables dynamic dosimetry in permanent prostate brachytherapy using readily available equipment.
The system's ease of use and accuracy show significant promise for widespread clinical adoption.
This advancement can lead to improved patient care and treatment efficacy in prostate cancer brachytherapy.
