Abstract

AIMS: An increase in the demand of a new generation of radiotherapy planning systems based on learning approaches has been reported. At this stage, the new approach is able to improve the planning speed while saving a reasonable level of plan quality, compared with available planning systems. We believe that new achievements, such as deep-learning models, will be able to review the issue from a different point of view.
