Robust maximization of tumor control probability for radicality constrained radiotherapy dose painting by numbers of head and neck cancer
Background and purpose: Radiotherapy with dose painting by numbers (DPBN) needs another approach than conventional margins to ensure a geometrically robust dose coverage for the tumor. This study presents a method to optimize DPBN plans that as opposed to achieve a robust dose distribution instead r...
