Monitor Unit Calculation in Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy
The purpose of this invention is to provide a simple and efficient method for Monitor Unit ("MU") calculation for intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Using the dose/MU and the transmission dose/MU of the contributing beamlets, the MU calculation for the treatment planning system is readily and efficiently obtained.
Applications
- Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy
Advantages
- Independent of leaf sequence algorithms and delivery machines
- Rapid dose formulation for clinical use
