Methods and systems for automated treatment planning for radiation therapy are disclosed. Such methods and systems may be useful for treatment planning for intensity-modulate radiotherapy (IMRT). Also provided are user interfaces for automated radiation therapy treatment planning.

Methods and systems for automated planning of radiation therapy

Methods and systems for visualization of 3D parametric data in a 2D image. The set of 3D parametric data includes a plurality of voxels in 3D space each associated with at least one parametric value, and the set of 2D image data includes information about a known camera position and a known camera orientation at which the 2D image was obtained. A graphical representation is generated of the parametric values of the voxels corresponding to a viewing surface in 3D space. A virtual 2D view of the viewing surface is determined. The 2D image is displayed registered with the graphical representation of the parametric values of the voxels corresponding to the virtual 2D view.

A system and method for commissioning of a beam model for a three dimensional radiation therapy treatment planning system is described. The system includes an intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) unit for generating a two dimensional intensity modulated beam pattern, a two dimensional diode array for detecting a two dimensional dose map for the beam pattern, and a processor configured to execute instructions for iteratively adjusting one or more parameters for the beam model, in order to increase agreement between the detected dose map and a calculated dose map calculated using the beam model.
