| Reason/Issue |
Elekta has identified that the margin tool in Leksell GammaPlan 11.1 systematically overestimates margin in certain areas of the volume.
The root cause is that the margin algorithm calculates the expanded volume at a resolution limited to the original images resolution in the contours normal direction, resulting in an overestimation of the resulting margin volume in areas oblique to the contouring plane. |
