Zusammenfassung:A system and method for automatically generating radiation therapy treatment plans including one or more processors configured to capture geometries of organs at risk and a target volume specific to a subject, and use a shape-based algorithm to mine (152) a knowledgebase (38) of previously constructed treatment plans for similar geometries to the subject. The system and method interfaces (154) dosimetric information from a plan with a similar geometry as a patient specific starting point for a progressive tuning optimization algorithm resulting in fewer iterations. The progressive tuning algorithm (156, 158, 162) generates an optimized treatment plan. The optimized plan is evaluated against treatment goals. Trade-off plans are generated (164) create alternative plans according to unmet treatment goals.
