Some aspects include a system, method, and computer-readable medium to divide a representation of a target volume into an array of sub-volumes; define a high dose volume to which a high dose of radiation is to be delivered; define a plurality of sampling volumes; direct an estimated dose of radiation to each sub-volume; determine whether the dose of radiation delivered to each high dose volume is at least a minimum threshold dose, and that the radiation delivered to the plurality of sampling volumes for each of the sub-volumes is at least a minimum difference less than the radiation delivered to the high dose volume; adjust the estimated dose of radiation directed to each sub-volume; and develop a radiation treatment plan, including the adjusted dose, to invoke a biological effect of spatially separated radiation.
