Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A radiotherapy treatment plan for irradiation of an object to be irradiated is determined. The object to be irradiated includes a number of irradiation areas and the object to be irradiated is irradiated with a number of beams from different directions. The method includes determining a number of total dose conditions. One of the number of total dose conditions is assigned to a respective one of the number of irradiation areas. The method further includes determining a number of single beam dose conditions. One of the single dose conditions is assigned to a respective one of the number of beams and a respective one of the number of irradiation areas. The method also includes determining irradiation parameters for the number of beams as a function of the number of total dose conditions and the number of single beam dose conditions.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for determining a radiotherapy treatment plan for an irradiation of an object to be irradiated, wherein a number of irradiation regions are determined in the object to be irradiated, and wherein the object to be irradiated is irradiated with a number of beams from different directions, the method comprising: providing a processor configured for determination of dose conditions and determination of irradiation parameters for the number of beams…
