Abstract
Multi-criteria optimization (MCO) is a method that was added to treatment planning to create high-quality treatment plans. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of MCO in combination with knowledge-based planning (KBP) in radiotherapy for left-sided breasts, including regional nodes. Dose/volume parameters were evaluated for manual plans (MP), KBP, and KBP + MCO. Planning target volume doses of MP had better coverage while KBP + MCO plans demonstrated the lowest organ at risk doses. KBP and KBP + MCO plans had increasing complexity as expressed in the number of monitor units.
