An analytical approach to aggregate patient inflows to a simulation model over the radiotherapy process

Abstract Background In meeting input data requirements for a system dynamics (SD) model simulating the radiotherapy (RT) process, the number of patient care pathways (RT workflows) needs to be kept low to simplify the model without affecting the overall performance. A large RT department can have mo...
