Embodiment Construction

[0017] refer to figure 1 , treatment system 10 includes one or more imaging modalities 12 to acquire images of objects and / or organs at risk (OARs) within a patient. The imaging modality 12 suitably includes one or more of: a computed tomography (CT) scanner, a positron emission tomography (PET) scanner, a magnetic resonance (MR) scanner, a single photon emission computed tomography ( SPECT) scanners, cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanners, etc. Images acquired from imaging modality 12 are stored in one or more image memories 14 .

[0018] Planning system 16 of treatment system 10 receives images, such as three-dimensional and / or four-dimensional image sets, of target and / or organs at risk of the patient.

[0019] Typically, the images are received from imaging modality 12 via image memory 14, although other sources are also contemplated. Using these images, planning system 16 generates and / or updates a treatment plan for the patient. The treatment plan includes tre...

Abstract

A method for reviewing a treatment plan including displaying list of at least one of a selected plurality of patients, institutions, and treatment plans associated with a treatment planning system, selecting at least one of the one or more patients, institutions, and treatment plans, querying treatment plan parameters associated with the selected one or more patients, institutions, and treatment plans, and generating a report file of the queried treatment plan parameters.

Description

technical field [0001] This application generally relates to radiation therapy. The present application finds particular application in conjunction with an automated review process for accessing radiation therapy treatment plan data from multiple patient plans. However, it is also understood that it finds application in other treatment plan review contexts as well, and is not necessarily limited to the aforementioned applications. Background technique [0002] In radiation therapy, a spatially targeted radiation dose is applied to a patient's target, such as a tumor containing cancerous or malignant tissue. Growing and rapidly proliferating cancer cells tend to be more sensitive to damage from radiation than normal cells, so that doses administered with proper planning preferentially kill cancerous or malignant tissue. Current external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) involves a detailed treatment planning process following an initial imaging protocol. Planning typically inv...
