Particle Swarm Optimisation Applied to the Direct Aperture Optimisation Problem in Radiation Therapy

Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is one of the most used techniques for cancer treatment. Using a linear accelerator, it delivers radiation directly at the cancerogenic cells in the tumour, reducing the impact of the radiation on the organs surrounding the tumour. The complexity of the I...
