    Summary

    Therapy simulators are crucial for radiation therapy planning, aiding in body contour tracing and beam adjustment during two key phases. This ensures precise radiation delivery by defining beam directions and field sizes for optimal patient treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Physics
    • Radiation Oncology

    Context:

    • Current understanding of therapy simulators in radiation therapy.
    • Description of a specific therapy simulator type.
    • Analysis of simulator applications in irradiation planning.

    Purpose:

    • To outline the prevailing concepts of therapy simulators.
    • To detail the applications of simulators in radiation therapy planning.
    • To discuss the essential requirements for therapy simulators.

    Summary:

    • Therapy simulators are vital in two phases of irradiation planning: initial cross-sectional body view tracing for preliminary beam adjustments and final fixation of beam directions and field sizes.
    • The simulator assists in defining optimal beam directions and field sizes, ensuring accurate dose planning and marking of cutaneous fields.
