    Area of Science:

    • Medical Physics
    • Radiotherapy
    • Computational Oncology

    Context:

    • The All-Union Cancer Research Center utilizes the CIRCIS computer complex for radiotherapy dosimetric planning.
    • Current software supports dose distribution calculations but lacks irradiation time computation.

    Purpose:

    • To develop and integrate a program for calculating irradiation times into the existing CIRCIS computer complex.
    • To enhance the efficiency of dosimetric planning for radiotherapy.

    Summary:

    • A Fortran program was created to calculate irradiation times for multifield rotation therapy.
    • The program integrates with the CIRCIS complex, which is used for gamma-beam and electron accelerator planning.
    • Calculations are completed within 2-3 minutes, significantly reducing planning time.

    Impact:

    • Expedited dosimetric planning for radiotherapy patients.
    • Improved efficiency in the clinical application of radiation oncology.
    • Facilitates faster treatment initiation and adjustments for cancer patients.
