A successive LP approach with C-VaR type constraints for IMRT optimization

In this paper, we propose a successive linear programming (LP) approach for an intensity-modulated radiotherapy treatment (IMRT) optimization. The use of IMRT enables to control the beam intensities accurately and gives more flexibility for cancer treatment plans, but finding a feasible plan that sa...
