Abstract We have developed a robust optimization approach for intensity modulated proton therapy treatment plans with multi-isocenter large fields. The method creates a low-gradient field dose in the junction regions to mitigate the impact caused by misalignment errors and is more efficient than the conventional junction shifting technique.
