An Ensemble Approach to Knowledge-Based Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Planning

An Ensemble Approach to Knowledge-Based Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Planning

Knowledge-based planning (KBP) utilizes experienced planners’ knowledge embedded in prior plans to estimate optimal achievable dose volume histogram (DVH) of new cases. In the regression-based KBP framework, previously planned patients’ anatomical features and DVHs are extracted, and prior knowledge...
