Alternatively, choose “Export” and select “Save as Fixed Calibration” (see red box
above). In this case only the calibration will be saved for use in calculating a dose map,
but for security, a fixed calibration cannot be edited or revised. Scanner header
information is required to save a fixed calibration function
To load calibration data saved as a
Treatment Case choose “File” on the menu
bar and “Load treatment case from file”. If
saved as a Treatment Object or Fixed
Calibration then right-click ”Add new Case
Object”, select “Open case object from file”
and navigate to the folder containing the
case object file. A case may contain multiple
calibration objects, but if a case contains
more than one calibration object it will be
necessary to select the correct dependency
for any other objects in that case requiring a
calibration, e.g. a Dose Map Object. For instance, expand the “Dose Map Object” and
select the dependence for that branch of the case tree.
Calibration cases and calibration data can be saved in many ways. The Calibration
Function Management icon located under the calibration function window provides
a shortcut to saving and utilizing a calibration in other useful ways. Right-click the icon
to access the menu:
Save as a fixed calibration: Saves the calibration in a form that cannot be
edited or revised when later used
Save as FilmQA XR calibration: Saves calibration in a form that can be used in
the FilmQA
™
XR application
Calibration function type management: Accesses the calibration function
library from which other existing calibration functions could be loaded
Add as universal calibration: Adds the calibration as a pre-shaped function
