Abstract
A radiation treatment planning system can include a machine learning system that receives patient data, including an image scan (e.g., CT scan) and contour(s), a physician prescription, including planning target and dose, and device (radiation beam) data and outputs predicted fluence maps. The machine learning system includes at least two stages, where a stage of the at least two stages includes converting image scans from the patient data to projection images. A treatment planning system can receive the predicted fluence maps and generates treatment plans without performing inverse optimization.
