Cancer is a common cause of death worldwide with radiotherapy as one of the most used treatments. Radiation treatment plans are normally optimized using constraints on the maximum dose to tumours and minimum dose to surrounding healthy structures. It has been suggested that utilizing biological models in the radiation plan optimization process could improve outcome significantly. Such treatment plans depend not only on the accuracy of the biological models, describing the dose response relations of different tumours and other structures, but also on the accuracy of tissue specific parameters in these models. Different sets of biological model parameters lead to different treatment plans and thus, uncertainties in these parameters may compro...
