Area of Science:

  • Medical Physics
  • Radiation Oncology
  • Software Engineering

Background:

  • User-developed automation software offers potential for treatment planning systems (TPS).
  • Rigorous testing is crucial for patient safety and data integrity with TPS automation.
  • Vendor-provided APIs enable script interaction with commercial TPS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an automated test platform for evaluating write-enabled scripts in a commercial TPS.
  • To ensure patient safety and data integrity when using user-developed automation software with TPS.
  • To facilitate the clinical implementation of automation scripts for TPS.

Main Methods:

  • Developed the Write-Enable Script Testing Engine (WESTE), a C# application.
  • Utilized the Eclipse Scripting Application Programming Interface (ESAPI) for TPS interaction.
  • Serialized TPS objects (Patient, Structure Set, PlanSetup) before and after script execution for comparison.

Main Results:

  • The WESTE platform successfully compared TPS data before and after script execution.
  • Identified differences in treatment planning data were documented.
  • Testing was performed rapidly, with each test case taking less than 4 seconds.

Conclusions:

  • The automated testing platform (WESTE) can acquire and analyze TPS data efficiently.
  • WESTE facilitates the clinical implementation of write-enabled scripts by ensuring data integrity and safety.
  • This approach enhances the reliability of user-developed automation in TPS environments.
