Abstract
A treatment planning system for generating patient-specific treatment. The system including one or more processors programmed to receive a radiation treatment plan (RTP) for irradiating a target over the course of one or more treatment fractions, said RTP including a planned dose distribution to be delivered to the target, receive motion data for at least one of the treatment fractions of the RTP, receive temporal delivery metric data for at least one of the treatment fractions of the RTP, calculate a motion-compensated dose distribution for the target using the motion data and the temporal delivery metric data to adjust the planned dose distribution based on the received motion data and temporal delivery metric data, and compare the motion-compensated dose distribution to the planned dose distribution.
