A METHOD AND A CORRESPONDING RADIATION TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING OPTIMIZATION OF A MULTIMODAL RADIATION THERAPY PLAN

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to the field of radiation treatment. More specifically, the present disclosure generally relates to methods and radiation treatment systems for facilitating a multimodal radiation therapy treatment plan, in particular a multimodal radiation therapy plan employing a combined photon beam and electron beam radiation treatment. According to one example embodiment described in the disclosure, a method may comprise obtaining (210) information related to a set of candidate beam types for the combined photon beam and electron beam radiation treatment; comparing (230) the set of candidate beam types against a selection criterion to establish (250) a subset of beam types from the candidate beam types; and generating (260) the combined photon beam and electron beam radiation treatment plan utilizing the thus established subset of beam types.
