Abstract:Abstract. The intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) treatment planning is usually a sequential process where initially a given number of beam directions are selected followed by the fluence map optimization (FMO) considering those beam directions. The beam angle optimization (BAO) problem consists on the selection of appropriate radiation incidence directions in radiation therapy treatment planning and may be decisive for the quality of the treatment plan, both for appropriate tumor coverage and for enh… Show more
