Optimization of Beam Orientation and Weight in Radiotherapy Treatment Planning using a Genetic Algorithm
Introduction: The selection of suitable beam angles and weights in external-beam radiotherapy is at present generally based upon the experience of the planner. Therefore, automated selection of beam angles and weights in forward-planned radiotherapy will be beneficial. Material and Methods: In this...
