Evolution of Calculation Algorithms

Manual – 1D

2D  pencil beam (ECLIPSE – SPB, HELAX (OTP) – TMS, …) 1D heterogeneity correction

2,5 D  ECLIPSE-AAA (pencil beam but with heterogeneity correction ~3D)

3D  convolution/superposition, collapsed cone (CMS, Pinnacle, HELAX (OTP) – CC, Tomotherapy) 3D heterogeneity correction
