1. A method for planning delivery of radiation dose to a target region within a subject, the method comprising:
iteratively optimizing, by a processor, a simulated dose distribution relative to a set of one or more optimization goals comprising a desired dose distribution in the subject over an initial plurality of control points along a trajectory which involves relative movement between a radiation source and the subject; after reaching one or more initial termination conditions:
specifying, by the processor, an increased plurality of control points along the trajectory, the increased plurality of control points comprising a larger number of control points than the initial plurality of control points; anditeratively optimizing, by the processor, a simulated dose distribution relative to the set of one or more optimization goals over the increased plurality of control points to thereby determine a radiation delivery plan; the radiation delivery plan capable of causing a radiation delivery apparatus to deliver radiation in accordance with the radiation delivery plan. |
