EVOLUTIONARY MULTIOBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION FOR INTENSITY MODULATED RADIATION THERAPY

Ignacy Kaliszewski, Janusz Miroforidis

Abstract:

As cancer diseases take nowadays a heavy toll on societies worldwide, extensive research is being conducted to provide more accurate diagnoses and more effective treatments. In particular, Multiobjective Optimization has turned out to be an appropriate and efficient framework for timely and accurate radiotherapy planning. In the paper, we sketch briefly the background of Multiobjective Optimization research to Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy, and next we present a rudimentary formulation of the problem. We also present a generic methodology we developed for Multiple Criteria Decision Making, and we present preliminary results with it when applied to radiation treatment planning.

Keywords:

Evolutionary multiobjective optimization, multiple criteria decision making, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy planning.
