    • A method of determining a radiation treatment plan for delivering radiation to a patient using an external-beam radiation treatment system is described. A first clinical goal and a second clinical goal are received, wherein the first clinical goal includes a first threshold value for a first quality index relating to a first statistical quantity of a dose distribution, and the second clinical goal includes a second threshold value for a second quality index relating to a second statistical quantity of the dose distribution. A first clinically significant change and a first clinically insignificant change for the first quality index are specified by a user, and a second clinically significant change and a second clinically insignificant change for the second quality index are specified by the user. A cost function includes a first term, a second term, and a third term, wherein the first term is proportional to a value of the first quality index in excess of the first threshold value and proportional to a value of the second quality index in excess of the second threshold value, the second term relates to the first clinically insignificant change for the first quality index and to the second clinically significant change for the second quality index, and the third term relates to the first clinically significant change for the first quality index and to the second clinically insignificant change for the second quality index. Optimization is then performed using the cost function to obtain an optimal radiation treatment plan having an optimal value for the cost function.
