Purpose: We present a hybrid direct MLC aperture optimization model exclusively based on sequencing of patient imaging data to be implemented on a Monte Carlo 30 treatment planning system (MC-TPS) to allow the explicit radiation transport simulation of advanced radiotherapy treatments with optimal results in efficient times for clinical...

Purpose To develop a new optimization algorithm to carry out true dose painting by numbers (DPBN) planning based on full Monte Carlo (MC) calculation. Methods Four configurations with different clustering of the voxel values from PET data were proposed. An optimization method at the voxel level under Lineal Programming (LP) formulation was used...
