Commissioning For Treatment Planning System
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Objective: A process and system of treatment planning is very important in radiation therapy. The features of the software and the accuracy in the dose calculation and dose distribution will affect to the treatment quality as well as the patient outcome. When a treatment planning system is applied in treatment at the first time, it should be checked and approved all its system information, features, plan assessment tools and dose calculation modules as well. That process is called Commissioning for treatment planning system.

Commissioning and early experience with a new generation low-energy linear accelerator in zahedan
Introduction: Since commissioning beam data are treated as a reference and ultimately used by treatment planning systems, it is vitally important that the collected data are of the highest quality to avoid dosimetric and patient treatment errors that may subsequently lead to a poor radiation outcome. Beam data commissioning should be performed with appropriate knowledge and pr...

متن کاملOn the need for monitor unit calculations as part of a beam commissioning methodology for a radiation treatment planning system
This paper illustrates the need for validating the calculation of monitor units as part of the process of commissioning a photon beam model in a radiation treatment planning system. Examples are provided in which this validation identified subtle errors, either in the dose model or in the implementation of the dose algorithm. These errors would not have been detected if the commissioning proces...

Introduction: Very low, Low and Medium X-ray machines are used extensively for Superficial Radiation Therapy mostly used for Basal Cell, Squamous Cell Carcinoma, and Melanoma skin cancers. In most of cases, Superficial X-ray Therapy (SXRT) is preferred to Electron beams generated using a linear accelerator. SXRT tube characteristics may vary with the use of the machine for a lo...
