摘要:
A method and system are provided for converting clinical criteria constraints for a target structure of radiation therapy into a second set of constraints. The method includes selecting, by a hardware processor, a plurality of clusters of voxels in the target structure based on pre-specified criteria. The method further includes assigning, by the hardware processor, each of the plurality of clusters of voxels a respective constraint that specifies one or more bounds on a radiation dose applied to each voxel in a corresponding one of the plurality of clusters of voxels. The method also includes storing, in a memory device, the respective constraint for each of the plurality of clusters of voxels.
