To introduce the definite target volume (DTV) and evaluate dosimetric consequences of boosting dose to this region of high clinical target volume (CTV)- and low organs at risk (OAR)-probability. This work defines the DTV via occupancy probability and via contraction of the CTV by margin M less any planning risk volume (PRV) volumes. The equivalence to within varying occupancy probability of the two methods is established for spherical target volumes. We estimate a margin for four radiation treatment sites based on modern images guided radiation therapy-literature utilizing repeat volumetric imaging. Based on margins and patient-specific DTV targets, the ability to dose escalate the DTV including the effects of spatial uncertainty was evaluated. We simulate delivery assuming violation of the underlying spatial uncertainty of 130%. Contracting the planning target volume (PTV) by M and excluding PRV volumes, the DTV ranged from 7.3 to 93.6 cc. In a brain treatment, DTV-Dmax increased to 66.8 Gy (145% of prescription isodose); in advanced lung DTV-Dmax increased to 122.2 Gy (204% of prescription isodose), in a pancreatic case DTV-Dmax was boosted up to 87.3 Gy (173% or prescription isodose), and in retroperitoneal sarcoma to 74.6 Gy (249% of prescription isodose). The high point doses were not associated with increased dose to OARs, even when considering the effects of spatial uncertainty. Simulated delivery at 130% of assumed spatial uncertainties revealed DTV-based planning can result in minor increases in OAR Dmean/Dmax of 2.7 ± 2.1 Gy/1.8 ± 2.2 Gy with duodenum Dmax > 110% of prescription isodose in the pancreatic case. These dose increases were consistent with simulation of clinical, homogenous PTV-dose distributions. We have proposed and tested a method to deliver extremely high doses to subvolumes of target volumes in multiple treatment sites by defining a new target volume, the DTV. Based on simulated delivery, the method does not result in significant increases in dose to OARs if spatial uncertainty can be estimated.
