Abstract
The objective of this work was to develop a quality control (QC) tool to reduce intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning variability and improve treatment plan quality using mathematical models that predict achievable organ-at-risk (OAR) dose-volume histograms (DVHs) based on individual patient anatomy.
