SYMPOSIUM Robust optimisation in protons and photons 08:45 - 10:00 | STRAUS 2-3

Image-guided therapy and other technology can minimise geometrical uncertainties in radiotherapy. In treatment planning, measures are taken to account for expected residual uncertainties, e.g. by applying a CTV-PTV margin, aiming at making the treatment plan robust for those uncertainties. CTV-PTV margins have limitations. In this session, alternatives for the CTV-PTV margin approach will be discussed, both for photon and particle beam therapy. Novel approaches for robust plan optimisation will be highlighted, as well as practical approaches for making treatment plans robust using commercial planning systems, and methods to evaluate the robustness of plans. Limitations of robust optimisation will also covered, together with possible solutions.
