Comparison of linear and nonlinear programming approaches for “worst case dose” and “minmax” robust optimization of intensity‐modulated proton therapy dose distributions

Robust optimization of intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT) takes uncertainties into account during spot weight optimization and leads to dose distributions that are resilient to uncertainties. Previous studies demonstrated benefits of linear programming (LP) for IMPT in terms of delivery effic...
