A Double Iteration Greedy Heuristic Approach for Permanent Brachytherapy Planning

Abstract: This paper presents a double iteration greedy heuristic (DIGH) approach for permanent brachytherapy treatment planning. The DIGH approach adopts a greedy heuristic seed selection (GHSS) procedure to obtain a preliminary plan. In this process, the potential seeds are evaluated according to their ability to irradiate target volume while sparing organs-at-risk (OARs). Their impact on dosimetric homogeneity within target volume is also taken into account. The preliminary treatment plan generated by the GHSS proced… Show more
