Automatic creation and selection of dose prediction models for treatment plans

摘要

A dose prediction model can be determined for generating a dose distribution of a treatment plan for irradiating a target structure within a patient. Treatment plans from previous patients can be analyzed to determine D characteristic values to obtain a D dimensional point for each treatment plan. The treatment plans can be clustered based on the D dimensional points. The treatment plans of a cluster can then be used to determine a dose prediction model. A dose prediction model for patient can be selected from among multiple models. Characteristics about the patient can be used to determine a D dimensional point corresponding to the patient. The D-dimensional point can be used to select a model in comparison to D dimensional points of the models.
