Abstract
The present invention relates to a method, a device, and a program for calculating a brachytherapy plan, and a brachytherapy apparatus. The method comprises: a step in which a computer obtains the number of radiation irradiation spots on the basis of radiation irradiation information (a radiation irradiation spot number obtaining step (S)); a step in which the computer obtains target area information from a body model of a patient generated on the basis of medical image data of the patient (a target area information obtaining step (S)); and a therapy plan calculating step (S) in which the computer calculates, on the basis of the radiation irradiation information and the target area information, the radiation irradiation spots to which radiation is irradiated and the time length of irradiation to each radiation irradiation spot.
