Abstract

Margin concepts in proton therapy aim to ensure full dose coverage of the clinical target volume (CTV) in presence of setup and range uncertainty. Due to inter-observer variability (IOV), the CTV itself is uncertain. We present a framework to evaluate the combined impact of IOV, setup and range uncertainty in a variance-based sensitivity analysis (SA). For ten patients with skull base meningioma, the mean calculation time to perform the SA including 1.6 x 10(4) dose recalculations was 59 min. For two patients in this dataset, IOV had a relevant impact on the estimated CTV D-95% uncertainty.
