Probabilistic optimization of dose coverage in radiotherapy

Background and purpose: Probabilistic optimization is an alternative to margins for handling geometrical uncertainties in treatment planning of radiotherapy where uncertainties are explicitly incorporated in the optimization. We present a novel probabilistic method based on the same statistical meas...
