Bone-targeted radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is widely used in the treatment of vertebral metastases. While radiation therapy utilizes established treatment planning systems (TPS) based on multimodal imaging to optimize treatment volumes, current RFA of vertebral metastases has been limited to qualitative image-based assessment of tumour location to direct probe selection and access. This study aimed to design, develop and evaluate a computational patient-specific RFA TPS for vertebral metastases.
Methods
A TPS was developed on the open-source 3D slicer platform, including procedural setup, dose calculation (based on finite element modelling), and analysis/visualization modules. Usability testing was carried out by 7 clinicians involved in the treatment of vertebral metastases on retrospective clinical imaging data using a simplified dose calculation engine. In vivo evaluation was performed in a …},
