Database of Radiotherapy Plan Image for Deformable Image Registration].

Guidelines require commissioning for deformable image registration (DIR) software before clinical use. The accuracy of DIR software depends upon data used. If common datasets for the DIR commissioning are available, the DIR results using the common datasets would be useful as an accuracy benchmark. Thus, the DIR-database (DIR-DB) was developed for DIR accuracy check and was open to access, which included radiotherapy plan data. This study was approved by Institutional Review Board (IRB). The DIR-DB recorded radiotherapy plans which had been finished on June 2017 and which at least two radiotherapy plans were built for a case in a treatment course. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images for patient setup were also collected and recorded in the DIR-DB, if it is available. All recorded data were anonymized and were allowed to access by users in Japan with the IRB approval. The accuracy metrics of DIR; Hausdorff distance, mean distance to agreement, Dice similarity coefficient, Jaccard were put up on the DIR-DB web site. The number of recorded cases were 11 cases for head and neck, 16 cases for thorax, 7 cases for abdomen, 8 cases for pelvis and 6 cases for prostate treated with brachytherapy. The number of case for CBCT was 17 cases. It was meaningful for DIR accuracy check in Japan that the DIR-DB and DIR results using the data in the database were released.
