Gamma Knife (GK) radiosurgery is a non-invasive treatment modality which allows single fraction delivery of focused radiation to one or more brain targets. Treatment planning mostly involves manual placement and shaping of shots to conform the prescribed dose to a surgical target. This process can be time consuming and labour intensive. An automated method is needed to determine the optimum combination of treatment parameters to decrease planning time and chance for operator-related error. Recen...
