Abstract
A dose planning system includes a biopsy map creation module configured for receiving biopsy information for an organ of interest regarding biopsy locations and tissue characteristics of tissue found at the biopsy locations and creating a spatially annotated biopsy map for the organ, by linking the spatial information on the biopsy locations to the tissue characteristics of tissue found at the corresponding biopsy locations. A probability map calculation module is configured for creating a tumor probability map by calculating a tumor probability for locations in the organ from which no biopsy was taken by using the tumor and/or tissue characteristics from the biopsy locations and a dose planning module configured for creating a dose plan based on the tumor probability map. The planning constraints are such that on average a higher tumor probability results in a higher planned dose and a lower tumor probability results in a lower planned dose.
