NTCP‐constrained combined proton‐photon treatment planning to maximize utilization of limited proton slots
NTCP-CPPT minimizes the required proton fractions while preserving adequate target dose quality and OAR sparing benefits. This method has the potential to reduce treatment costs and increase patient access to proton therapy.
