AI Technical Summary
The prior art is difficult to automate the optimization of radiation therapy treatment plans, especially in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volume modulated arc therapy (VMAT), and the generation and optimization of new treatment plans during adaptive treatments is time-consuming, with the lack of automatic optimization function.
An automated treatment planning system was developed that enables the automatic generation and optimization of treatment plans using multiple clinical input data sources (such as knowledge-based information and clinical purpose templates), including automatic generation of auxiliary targets to guide dose optimization, automatic replacement of incompatible clinical purposes, and automatic optimization of adapted treatment plans in an adaptive workflow.
It realizes efficient generation and optimization of treatment plans in automatic workflows, reduces the workload of clinical users, improves the automation level of treatment plans, and ensures that the output treatment plans are clinically acceptable.
