author keywords: Markov decision process; patient selection; proton therapy
MeSH headings : Humans; Patient Selection; Photons / adverse effects; Probability; Proton Therapy / methods; Protons; Radiotherapy Planning, Computer-Assisted / methods
TL;DR:
The goal is to determine the ΔNTCP thresholds for selecting a patient for proton therapy, which optimally balance the competing goals of making use of all available slots while not blocking slots with patients with low benefit.
