title: [Optimization methods in radiation treatment planning].
abstract: The optimization methods in radiation treatment planning are reviewed in this paper, including the physical and biological optimization models, the optimization for Gamma knife treatment planning, the optimization for intensity modulated radiation treatment planning and the optimization for intravascular brachytherapy treatment planning. The development trend of radiation treatment planning is also introduced in the paper.
