Abstract
Throughout the radiotherapy treatment process, geometrical changes in the patient often occur, e.g. organs differing in shape from that of the planning CT scan (pCT). This organ deformation leads to uncertainties in the dose distribution throughout the treatment course. We present a method to statistically model the time dependent effect of organ deformation on organ at risk (OAR) dose, with the aim of later incorporating it into advanced treatment planning methods i.e. probabilistic planning.
