The authors calculated the accuracy of isodose lines for a variety of clinical treatment techniques and beam energies using linear, quadratic and cubic spline interpolation methods. For a single beam, the greatest positional errors occur on either si

Technological advances in treatment delivery and planning have provided the backdrop for an unprecedented number of options in the treatment of prostate cancer with radiotherapy. The more common choices include classical external-beam radiotherapy, e

Segmented conformal radiation therapy is a new computer-controlled treatment technique under investigation in which the target volume is subdivided into thick transverse segments each of which is then treated individually by rectangular transverse ab

A method of incorporating dose-volume considerations within the framework of conventional linear programming is presented. This method is suitable for the optimization of beam weights and angles using a conformal treatment philosophy (i.e., tailoring

A variation of simulated annealing optimization called 'constrained simulated annealing' is used with a simple annealing schedule to optimize beam weights and angles in radiation therapy treatment planning. Constrained simulated annealing is demonstr

Linear programming is a versatile mathematical tool for optimizing radiation therapy treatment plans. For planning purposes, dose constraint points, possible treatment beams, and an objective function are defined. Dose constraint points are specified

In computer dose calculations using scatter-air ratio sector summation algorithms, the primary dose from the target to points away from the central axis of a beam is computed using an exponential intensity model of the source and a transmission param

Results are presented which indicate that for these specific cases the biological half-life of the activated beta +-emitting radionuclides depends on the anatomical site, varying from 38 to 79 min for the sites measured. The abdominal tumours had gre

A general algorithm for treatment plan isodose line plotting is described which is particularly useful for pen plotters. Unlike other methods of plotting isodose lines, this algorithm is designed specifically to reduce pen motion, thereby reducing pl

A template for calculating equivalent squares of irregularly shaped fields is described. Calculations using the template are essentially scatter summations. Comparisons with a computer program showed good agreement in equivalent squares and tumor dos
