Comment on `Linear energy transfer incorporated intensity modulated proton therapy optimization'
2021
Cao et al (2018) published an article on inverse planning based on dose-averaged linear energy transfer (LET). Their claim that the problem can be cast as a linear optimization model relies on an incorrect application of the Charnes-Cooper transformation. In this comment we show that their linear model is simlar to one where dose-averaged LET is multiplied with dose, explaining why their model was nonetheless able to improve the LET distribution.
