This study introduces an integrated radiotherapy network, enhancing treatment planning with CT imaging and rapid data transfer. The system facilitates accurate 3D planning and computer-controlled therapy for over 1,000 patients.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Physics
  • Radiation Oncology
  • Radiotherapy Technology

Background:

  • Development of advanced radiotherapy treatment planning systems.
  • Integration of imaging and planning technologies in radiation oncology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail the development of an integrated radiotherapy network.
  • To showcase advancements in radiotherapy treatment planning and delivery.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a Computer Tomography (CT) simulator for image acquisition and treatment planning.
  • Developed an integrated network including PACS, a radiotherapy database, CT simulator, and linear accelerator.
  • Implemented an Ethernet network for rapid data transfer between components.

Main Results:
