摘要: A method, code and system for planning the treatment a lesion on or adjacent to retina of an eye patient are disclosed. There is first established at least two beam paths along which x-radiation be directed retinal lesion. Based known spectral intensity characteristics beam, total time irradiation each determined. From coordinates optic nerve in aligned position, there determined extent duration movement away from patient-eye position direction that moves patient's toward will allowed during treatment, while still maintaining radiation dose below predetermined level.
