Method and system for increasing resolution in a radiotherapy system

摘要

Method and system aspects for increasing resolution of a radiotherapy system to achieve virtual fractional monitor unit radiation delivery are described. Included in a method aspect, and system for achieving same, is identification of a desired treatment dose, the desired treatment dose exceeding a resolution of a radiation treatment device. Further included is the development of a schedule of treatment sessions for delivering the desired treatment dose by the radiation treatment device that produces a combined treatment dose equaling the desired treatment dose without exceeding the resolution within each treatment session.
