Plan Horizon: Intelligent Guidance for Treatment Planning
Plan Horizon is an advanced solution designed to assist medical physicists in the initial stages of treatment planning by providing a clear assessment of the practicality of achieving prescribed clinical objectives.
At the start of the planning process, Plan Horizon analyzes the estimated dose distribution to organs at risk (OARs) while ensuring optimal target volume (PTV) coverage. By comparing these estimates with predefined clinical goals set by the radiation oncologist, it helps determine whether the requested objectives are realistically achievable.
Beyond assessment, Plan Horizon facilitates the preconfiguration of optimization parameters by assigning appropriate priorities to each organ, ensuring that the optimization process is guided toward the desired outcomes. If necessary, the solution allows the optimizer to prioritize the protection of a specific OAR over PTV coverage by dynamically adjusting priority levels.
By integrating Plan Horizon into the workflow, radiotherapy teams can streamline treatment planning, enhance decision-making, and improve plan quality with greater efficiency and confidence
