A computer-implemented method may be provided to aid in radiation treatment planning, the method comprising: receiving treatment plan parameters including a reference dose value for a target region of a patient and a defined dose value for a surrounding region; determining whether the defined dose value for the surrounding region exceeds a threshold; and responsive to determining that the defined dose value for the surrounding region does not exceed the threshold, modifying the defined dose value for the surrounding region, and applying an optimization procedure to a treatment plan for radiation treatment of the patient with the modified dose value for the surrounding region.
