Zusammenfassung:A computer implemented method (800) of determining a treatment plan for a proton radiation therapy system, said method comprising: based on the proton radiation therapy system, accessing (804) machine configuration information including a plurality of machine parameters; iteratively adjusting (806) the plurality of machine parameters to generate one or more candidate treatment plans; simulate (808) the plurality of generated candidate treatment plans to determine a respective treatment time and respective plan quality associated with each of the treatment plans; select (810) a candidate treatment plan that yields an acceptable plan quality and a shortest possible treatment time.
