title: [Optimization in planning and application of 60 Co gamma irradiations - analysis of the problem (author's transl)].
abstract: As an aspect of the complex problem of optimization in therapeutical transmission of radiation energy to Man, the dose distribution within a cross-sectional area of the body is considered. For the judgement on optimal dose distributions, involving judgement on irradiation technique, boundary conditions are needed which encompass important parameters of a dose distribution (= criterion for optima). For computer-assisted optimization the boundary conditions are to be scheduled by an appropriate algorithm. The parameters describing a dose distribution are indicated. Practical utilization of computer-assisted optimization of dose is represented by means of two optimization schedules.
