In this study, we proposed a new HCT-CBCT auto-registration strategy using a previously registered CBCT (CBCTpre) as the reference image and tested its clinical feasibility.<h4>Methods</h4>From a previous CBCT session, the registered average 4D CBCT was selected as CBCTpre and the HCT-CBCTpre registration vector from the clinician's manual registration result was recorded. In the new CBCT session, auto-registration was performed between the new average 4D CBCT (CBCTtx) and CBCTpre (CBCTpre-CBCTtx). The overall HCT-CBCTtx registration result was then derived by combing the results from two registrations (i.e., HCT-CBCTpre + CBCTpre-CBCTtx). The results from the proposed method were compared with clinician's manually adjusted HCT-CBCTtx registration results (\"ground truth\") to evaluate its accuracy using a test dataset consisting of 32 challenging registration cases.<h4>Results</h4>The uncertainty of the proposed auto-registration method was -0.1 ± 0.5, 0.1 ± 1.0, and -0.1 ± 0.7 mm in three translational directions (lateral, longitudinal, and vertical) and 0.0° ± 0.9°, 0.3° ± 0.9°, and 0.4° ± 0.7° in three rotation directions, respectively. Two patients (6.3%) had translational uncertainty > 2 mm (max = 3.1 mm) and both occurred in the longitudinal direction. Meanwhile, the uncertainty of the conventional direct HCT-CBCTtx auto-registration was -0.4 ± 2.6, -0.2 ± 7.4, -1.4 ± 3.6 mm for translations and -0.3° ± 1.2°, 0.0° ± 1.6°, and 0.1 ± 1.1° for rotations. Eleven patients (34.4%) had translation uncertainty > 2 mm (max = 26.2 mm) in at least one direction. Accuracy in translation was improved with the new method, while rotation accuracy stayed in the same order.<h4>Conclusion</h4>We demonstrated the feasibility of incorporating prior clinical registration knowledge into the online HCT-CBCT registration process.
