Latest Patents
Weisheng Duan holds a patent titled "Evaluation and presentation of robustness of a treatment plan." This patent discusses systems and methods for evaluating and presenting the robustness of a radiotherapy treatment plan. The exemplary system includes a processor that generates dose distributions at an anatomical structure under nominal and artificially imposed uncertainty conditions. It determines a dose distribution characteristic for the anatomical structure and generates a robustness indicator of the treatment plan. The dose distributions can be determined at a target structure and one or more structures at risk, and they are presented graphically in a three-dimensional dose-volume-structure space. An output circuit can then present the dose distribution characteristic or the robustness indicator to a user or a treatment planning system. This innovation is essential for improving the accuracy and effectiveness of radiotherapy treatments.
