Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems for planning delivery of radiation dose to a target region within a subject comprise a processor configured to: initialize a first plurality of control points located on a trajectory, the trajectory comprising relative movement between a radiation source and the subject, wherein initializing the first plurality of control points comprises assigning, to each the first plurality of control points, one or more axis positions which specify a position of the radiation source relative to the subject; specify a second plurality of control points along the trajectory, the second plurality of control points comprising a larger number of control points than the first plurality of control points; and iteratively optimize a simulated dose distribution over the second plurality of control points to thereby determine a radiation delivery plan by assigning each of the second plurality of control points optimized values for one or more radiation delivery parameters.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for planning delivery of a radiation dose to a target region within a subject, the system comprising a processor, the processor configured to: initialize a first plurality of control points located on a trajectory, the trajectory comprising relative movement between a treatment radiation source and the subject, wherein initializing the first plurality of control points comprises assigning, to each of the first plurality of control points, one or mor…
