Abstract:
Interference of dose application in scanned ion beam therapy and organ motion, also called interplay effect, may lead to dose deviations at target volumes. Current repainting methods are susceptible to artifacts due to a predominant scanning direction, ranging from fringed field edges to under and overdosed regions (hot and cold spots). To overcome the difficulties inherent in the repainting techniques of conventional proton therapy systems, new random repainting techniques are described herein for mitigating the under-dose and/or over-dose pattern inherent in existing repainting techniques using a random repainting approach that randomly selects spot locations within the target area.

Claim (Index 18):
The computer readable medium according to  claim 14 , further comprising instructions to align, prior to painting the target with the first plurality of applications of the directed beam of particles, the first plurality of applications of the directed beam of particles with movement of the target.
