A Framework for Automated Selection of Dose-Volume Objectives to Improve Radiation-Induced Immune Suppression (RIIS)-Related Overall Survival (OS) Following Chemo-Radiotherapy

Authors: Gabriel Lucas Andrade de Sousa, Einsley-Marie Janowski, Cam Nguyen, Krishni Wijesooriya

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Virginia, Department of Physics, University of Virginia

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Optimizing radiation therapy (RT) to spare the immune system may improve Overall Survival (OS) in cancer patients. This study develops a computational algorithm to identify optimal dose-volum...
