Some practical aspect in ion beam planning

General aspects

– SFUD might be a good treatment technique for many indications

– Combination of SFUD and IMPT might be helpful to assure

robustness in target coverage and OARs sparing within one treatment

– Range shifter in the beam path degrade beam quality

– Non isocentric treatments to improve beam characteristics

– HU to ED conversion sensitive to errors
