Résumé

Preoperative treatment planning is key to ensure successful thermal ablation of liver tumors. The planning aims to minimize the number of electrodes required for complete ablation and the damage to the surrounding tissues while satisfying multiple clinical constraints. This is a challenging multiple objective planning problem, in which the trade-off between different objectives must be considered. We propose a novel method to solve the multiple objective planning problem, which combines the set cover-based model and Pareto optimization. The set cover-based model considers multiple clinical constraints and generates several clinically feasible treatment plans, among which the Pareto optimization is performed to find the trade-off between different objectives. We evaluated the proposed method on 20 tumors of 11 patients in two different situations used in common thermal ablation approaches: with and without the pull-back technique. Pareto optimal plans were found and verified to be clinically acceptable in all cases, which can find the trade-off between the number of electrodes and the damage to the surrounding tissues. The proposed method performs well in the two different situations we considered: with or without the pull-back technique. It can generate Pareto optimal plans satisfying multiple clinical constraints. These plans consider the trade-off between different planning objectives.
