dc.description.abstractWe propose to solve the IMRT optimization problem through a successive linear programming approach. Taking advantage of the sensitivity information in linear programming and the re-optimization ability of simplex methods, the proposed approach provides an affordable methodology to efficiently solve problems with dose-volume constraints. Preliminary computational results indicate that, compared to the standard weighted least squares approach, the new approach leads to higher tumor dosage escalation and better conformation.en_US
