Advantages and limitations of navigation‐based multicriteria optimization (MCO) in selectively sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles in head and neck radiotherapy treatment planning

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles (PCMs) during radiotherapy improves patient‐reported swallowing function. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of integrating knowledge‐based planning (KBP) with multicriteria optimization (MCO) in Eclipse v18.0 to selectively spare PCM, quantify the required trade‐off in prophylactic ...
