Project Description

We will extend the treatment planning capabilities of SlicerRT by upgrading the corresponding user interface to better separate plan optimization and dose calculation. Algorithms will be interfaced from the open source treatment planning toolkit matRad via its new Python extension pyRadPlan. The goal is to allow full treatment planning on data loaded directly in Slicer, returning planned dose cubes for further analysis in Slicer.

Objective

  1. Python connection between SlicerRT ExternalBeamPlanning & pyRadPlan (matRad's Python interface)
  2. Photon & Ion Dose calculation engines available within SlicerRT ExternalBeamPlanning
  3. Updated SlicerRT ExternalBeamPlanning UI to better display planning workflow
  4. Rudimentary treatment plan optimization capabilities within SlicerRT

Approach and Plan

  1. Evaluate existing internal prototype for SlicerRT / matRad Python Interface
  2. Interface Forward dose calculation engines from matRad for photons and ions
  3. Update ExternalBeamPlanning Infrastructure to represent four-step planning process in slicerRT: Geometry Definition, Inverse Dose precomputation, Optimization, Forward dose calculation (already existing within ExternalBeamPlanning module in SlicerRT).
