Treatment planning is an essential step of the radiotherapy workflow. It has become more
sophisticated over the past couple of decades with the help of computer science, enabling …

Radiotherapy treatment planning of complex radiotherapy techniques, such as intensity
modulated radiotherapy and volumetric modulated arc therapy, is a resource-intensive …

PURPOSE: To incorporate a quality control tool, according to previous planning experience
and patient-specific anatomic information, into the intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) …

PURPOSE: To test whether multicriteria optimization (MCO) can reduce treatment planning
time and improve plan quality in intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). METHODS AND …

Inherently, IMRT treatment planning involves compromising between different planning
goals. Multi-criteria IMRT planning directly addresses this compromising and thus makes it …

PURPOSE: To prospectively compare plans generated with iCycle, an in-house-developed
algorithm for fully automated multicriterial intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) …

The goal of radiotherapy is to achieve uniform target coverage while sparing normal tissue.
In proton therapy, the same sources of geometric uncertainty are present as in conventional …

Background and purpose Clinical decision support systems are a growing class of tools with
the potential to impact healthcare. This study investigates the construction of a decision …

The “treatment planning” component of managing a radiotherapy patient currently consumes
hours, even days, of human effort. The time and workforce demands of the current planning …
