Dose Prediction Driven Radiotherapy Paramters Regression via Intra- and Inter-Relation Modeling [PDF]
Deep learning has facilitated the automation of radiotherapy by predicting accurate dose distribution maps. However, existing methods fail to derive the desirable radiotherapy parameters that can be directly input into the treatment planning system (TPS), impeding the full automation of radiotherapy.

On convergence of the optimization process in Radiotherapy treatment planning [PDF]
The Radiotherapy treatment planning optimization process based on a quasi-Newton algorithm with an object function containing dose-volume constraints is not guaranteed to converge when the dose value in the dose-volume constraint is a critical value of the dose distribution.

Artificial Intelligence in Radiotherapy Treatment Planning: Present and Future
Treatment planning is an essential step of the radiotherapy workflow. It has become more sophisticated over the past couple of decades with the help of computer science, enabling planners to design highly complex radiotherapy plans to minimize the normal

JulianA.jl -- A Julia package for radiotherapy [PDF]
The importance of computers is continually increasing in radiotherapy. Efficient algorithms, implementations and the ability to leverage advancements in computer science are crucial to improve cancer care even further and deliver the best treatment to each patient. Yet, the software landscape for radiotherapy is fragmented into proprietary systems that
