Abstract
This paper considers a compensation strategy for respiratory-induced
tumour motion for adaptive radiotherapy using a controlled patient support system
(PSS). A model predictive control (MPC) scheme for the PSS to track the tumour
motion is proposed together with two methods for predicting tumour motion,
including a Kalman ¯lter and neural networks. Simulation results using a clinical
data set consisting of 27 traces of respiratory motion show the potential of the
proposed control strategy.
