Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Biology
  • Radiotherapy

Background:

  • Automated radiation therapy requires accurate, real-time tumor tracking.
  • Previous tumor tracking algorithms are too slow for clinical use due to computational intensity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)-accelerated algorithm for real-time tumor tracking.
  • To improve the speed of tumor tracking for automated radiation therapy.

Main Methods:

  • Re-implemented a moving mesh tumor tracking algorithm on a parallel GPU platform.
  • Utilized GPU's parallel processing capabilities and faster shared memory to accelerate computations.
  • Focused on accelerating the numerical solution of partial differential equations for mesh deformation.

Main Results:

  • Achieved over 5 times computational acceleration compared to Central Processing Unit (CPU) implementation.
  • Demonstrated an average Dice score of 0.87 over 600 images from six patients.
  • Successfully implemented on an NVIDIA Tesla K40c GPU.

Conclusions:

  • GPU computing effectively accelerates tumor tracking for automated radiation therapy of mobile lung tumors.
  • Real-time tracking of mobile tumor boundaries is crucial for automating radiation therapy.
  • The proposed approach offers a viable solution for fast tumor region tracking in cancer treatment.
