Computation of optimal radiation treatment plans
Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 1977 AbstractThe goal of radiotherapy is to destroy a tumour in the patient's body by means of radiation. At the same time, healthy tissue is to be damaged as little as possible. In mathematical terms this means: in certain parts of the body minimal doses - necessary to destroy the cancerous tissue - must be achieved; in other parts maximum doses should not

Digital Computers in Radiation Treatment Planning
The British Journal of Radiology, 1964 Details are given of a scheme whereby treatment planning for radiotherapy may be carried out using a digital computer. A programme has been written with great generality to enable a wide range of fixed field and rotational treatment plans to be carried out.
