Optimizing spot‐scanning proton arc therapy with a novel spot sparsity approach
This study introduces a novel spot sparsity optimization approach using the ADMM framework to improve the delivery efficiency of SPArc. Compared to the existing state-of-the-art SSO method, such an approach could further enhance delivery efficiency while maintaining good plan quality, which could promote the implementation of SPArc in the clinic's.
