    A new coordinate measuring device significantly speeds up 3D treatment planning by simplifying digital data acquisition. This fast and accurate system reduces contour data digitization time by about 90% compared to manual methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Physics
    • Radiotherapy Technology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Computerized 3D treatment planning requires accurate digital contour data.
    • Manual acquisition of this data is time-consuming and can be complex.
    • Existing methods may limit the efficiency of radiotherapy planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel coordinate measuring device for simplifying digital data acquisition.
    • To evaluate the speed and accuracy of this new device for 3D treatment planning.
    • To assess the impact of the device on the efficiency of contour data digitization.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a specialized coordinate measuring device.
    • Integration of the device into the workflow for computerized 3D treatment planning.
