The availability of computerized radiation therapy treatment planning systems that utilize computed tomography (CT) scan data requires testing additional to that routinely needed for non-CT systems. These additional items include dimensioning verification, establishing CT number-to-tissue property conversions, verifying the accuracy of heterogeneity corrected dose predictions and autocontouring. One testing protocol is presented and sample results from an Atomic Energy of Canada Theraplan L system are presented. |
