Abstract
Systems and methods for radiation treatment planning based on a model of planning strategies knowledge including treatment states and treatment actions are disclosed. According to an aspect, a method includes receiving geometric characterization data of a target volume for radiation treatment of a patient. The method also includes receiving geometric characterization data of at least one organ at risk proximate the target volume. Further, the method includes constructing a model for applying a predetermined radiation dosage to the target volume based on the received data. The model includes treatment states and associated treatment actions selectable to implement at each state. The method includes presenting information about at least one treatment state, the treatment actions associated with the at least one treatment state, and the rewards associated with the treatment actions associated with the at least one treatment state. The method also includes reconstructing the model.
