Utilisation of Pareto navigation techniques to calibrate a fully automated radiotherapy treatment planning solution.
Article in Physics and imaging in radiation oncology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
background and purposeCurrent automated radiotherapy planning solutions do not allow for the intuitive exploration of different treatment options during protocol calibration. This work introduces an automated planning solution, which aims to address this problem through incorporating Pareto navigation techniques into the calibration process. MATERIALS AND
methodsFor each tumour site a set of planning goals is defined. Utilising Pareto navigation techniques an operator calibrates the solution through intuitively exploring different treatment options: selecting the optimum balancing of competing planning goals for the given site. Once calibrated, fully automated plan generation is possible, with specific algorithms implemented to ensure trade-off balancing of new patients is consistent with that during calibration. Using the proposed methodology the system was calibrated for prostate and seminal vesicle treatments. The resultant solution was validated through quantitatively comparing the dose distribution of automatically generated plans (VMAT

conclusionsAn automated planning methodology with a Pareto navigation based calibration has been developed, which enables the complex balancing of competing trade-offs to be intuitively incorporated into automated protocols.
