One-for-All Adaptive Radiotherapy Planning Agent: A Foundation Framework for Daily CBCT-guided Radiotherapy

In this work, we introduce the One-for-All Adaptive Radiotherapy Planning Agent, a unified foundation-model-based system that performs complete, treatment-specific online adaptive planning directly from daily cone-beam CT in under two minutes. The agent first autonomously predicts all essential planning components, including synthetic CT generation, multimodal alignment, and tumor/organ segmentation. It then intelligently leverages these outputs to execute the final clinical plan design, providing a comprehensive, automated solution for daily treatment. We also demonstrate that the agent enables clinicians to define planning with intent and intervene at critical decision points, ensuring a "human-in-the-loop" framework that generates acceptable plans before final approval. Evaluated on multiple datasets spanning head-and-neck, lung, abdominal, and prostate cancers with both photon and proton therapy, the proposed framework achieves clinically acceptable accuracy and plan quality comparable to clinically generated treatment plans, with target dose errors (D98) generally within 2.0 Gy of the reference plan. The strong performance of the One-for-All agent highlights the promise of a unified foundation-model approach and opens opportunities for fast, scalable, and fully automated online adaptive radiotherapy across diverse clinical scenarios.

Beam modelling of Hitachi PROBEAT proton therapy system for a GPU-based Fast Monte Carlo dose engine

Background: An in-house dose engine independent of clinic TPS is not only a reliable tool for patient QA verification. More importantly, it plays vital role in cutting-edge research due to its flexibility in implementing new functions. In this study, we upgraded our existing beam model with using double-Gaussian distributions for both spatial and opening angle distributions of particles to obtain more accurate phase space files. It is expected to potentially improve the performance of this independent dose engine in both clinic and research at the expanded MD Anderson proton center.
