PARAMETER SEARCH IN RADIOTHERAPY TREATMENT PLAN OPTIMIZATION

摘要

Techniques for generating a radiotherapy treatment plan are provided. The techniques include receiving a radiotherapy optimization problem, the radiotherapy problem comprising a plurality of parameters; processing the radiotherapy optimization problem to instantiate a first set of candidate parameters; converting the first set of candidate parameters into an adapted representation; defining an adapted radiotherapy optimization problem as a function of the adapted representation such that a given solution to the adapted optimization problem estimates a solution to the radiotherapy optimization problem; processing the adapted radiotherapy optimization problem to estimate a function of the solution to the adapted radiotherapy optimization problem; and processing the estimated function of the solution to the adapted optimization problem to generate a deliverable radiotherapy treatment plan.
