Conclusion: The new delivery solution with added degrees of freedom can reduce doses to OPC OARs while maintaining target coverage. For clinics using automated planning, this novel solution can be initially implemented using the current RapidPlan models. However, re-training is advisable to take full advantage of the additional degrees of freedom that RAD introduced during optimisation.
