Motion and uncertainty in radiotherapy is traditionally handled via margins. The clinical
target volume (CTV) is expanded to a larger planning target volume (PTV), which is …

We reviewed the literature on the use of margins in radiotherapy of patients with prostate
cancer, focusing on different options for image guidance (IG) and technical issues. The …

This work (i) proposes a probabilistic treatment planning framework, termed coverage
optimized planning (COP), based on dose coverage histogram (DCH) criteria;(ii) describes a …

We present a method to implement probabilistic treatment planning of intensity-modulated
radiation therapy using custom software plugins in a commercial treatment planning system …

Purpose Four-dimensional (4D) adaptive radiation therapy (ART) treatment planning is an
alternative to the conventional margin-based treatment planning approach. In 4D ART …

We describe a radiation therapy treatment plan optimization method that explicitly considers
the effects of interfraction organ motion through optimization on the clinical target volume …

Purpose: This paper introduces a method that maximizes the probability of satisfying the
clinical goals in intensity‐modulated radiation therapy treatments subject to setup …

A fast algorithm is constructed to facilitate dose calculation for a large number of randomly
sampled treatment scenarios, each representing a possible realisation of a full treatment …

Purpose: Tumor control probability (TCP) models have been proposed to evaluate and
guide treatment planning. However, they are usually based on the dose volume histograms …
