The current iterative approach to inverse planning of high dose rate treatment planning can
be time consuming. The purpose of this two-part study is to streamline the planning process
while maintaining plan quality. In this second part, a multi-criteria optimization (MCO)
planning algorithm is proposed and benchmarked against a standard planning algorithm.
Abstract
The current iterative approach to inverse planning of high dose rate treatment planning can be time consuming. The purpose of this two-part study is to streamline the planning process while maintaining plan quality. In this second part, a multi-criteria optimization (MCO) planning algorithm is proposed and benchmarked against a standard planning algorithm.
