Abstract

Treatment planning procedures are set up to obtain optimised dose distributions for the “average” patient. Whereas with individualisation of treatment planning a good compromise between dose objectives for the target volumes and dose constraints for the organs at risk can be obtained, some clinical cases demand creative and highly individualised approaches, especially in cases with challenging anatomies. In this section, we provide you with a few such examples, without the ambition to being exhaustive.
