A sensitivity-driven greedy approach to fluence map optimization in intensity-modulated radiation therapy
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a state-of-the-art technique for administering radiation to cancer patients. The goal of a treatment is to maximize the radiation absorbed by the tumor and minimize that absorbed by the surrounding critical organs. Since a plan can almost never be foun...
