Optimization method for determining vertices in lattice radiotherapy by Pan Ma, Yingjie Xu, Yuhe Yao, Ningning Lu, Jianrong Dai

“…PurposeThis study presents an optimization method for arranging lattice radiotherapy (LRT) targets to enhance the contrast between peak and valley doses, aiming to improve the treatment effectiveness and precision.Materials and methodsThe LRT target comprises multiple sphere-like vertices generated using the optimization method, which involves four steps: 1) generating a volume for vertex arrangement, 2) determining initial positions and size of packing units, 3) determining initial positions and size of all the vertices and 4) optimizing the final vertex positions by using adaptive simulated annealing (ASA). …”
