Knowledge based automated planning for non‐coplanar VMAT stereotactic radiosurgery in ocular malignancies

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Background and purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery/radiotherapy (SRS/SRT) has emerged as a less invasive alternative to enucleation in the management of ocular malignancies. SRS/SRT planning is time‐consuming, complex, and the plan quality depends on the experience of the treatment planner.
