Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of radiotherapy dose calculation and relates to a radiotherapy reverse optimization method and device in combination with Monte Carlo, and a storage medium. The method includes the following steps: inputting patient data and radioactive source parameters, or importing a historical radiotherapy plan, wherein the imported historical radiotherapy plan includes the patient data, the radioactive source parameters, and radiation field parameters; determining, by using an analytical algorithm, the added position of the Monte Carlo algorithm, continuing tooptimize the Monte Carlo two-dimensional flux grid weights, and stopping the calculation until the second accuracy is satisfied. The method determines the added position of the Monte Carlo dose calculation by setting the accuracy threshold to be achieved by analytical calculation, so as to avoid the oscillation of a dose calculation result caused by the early added Monte Carlo dose calculation dueto a large error of an analytical algorithm calculation result and avoid meaninglessness of the addition of the Monte Carlo.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radiotherapy dose calculation, and relates to a radiotherapy reverse optimization method, equipment and storage medium. Background technique [0002] The fundamental purpose of radiotherapy is to strive to increase the gain ratio of radiotherapy, that is, to maximize the dose of radiation in the target area to kill the tumor, so that the normal tissues or organs around the lesion are less exposed to or protected from radiation. To achieve this goal, the dose distribution of the target area must be accurately calculated before radiotherapy. [0003] In the prior art, the commonly used dose calculation methods mainly include analytical algorithms and Monte Carlo (Monte Carlo) algorithms. The analytical algorithms include pencil beam model (PBM), convolution algorithms, etc. The PBM dose calculation method can be used The dose calculation of the non-uniform phantom and the fast calculation speed is currently the m...
