Purpose: To explore forward planning methods for breast cancer treatment to obtain homogeneous dose distributions (using International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements criteria) within normal tissue constraints and to determine the feasibility of class solutions.Methods and Materials: Treatment plans were optimized in a stepwise procedure for 60 patients referred for post-lumpectomy irradiation using strict dose constraints: planning target volume (PTV)(95%) of >99%; V-107% of
