Getting Started With adaPT
prescribe
The adaPTprescribe application is used to manage patient, study, plan, and beam
data stored in the PTS database and to baseline beams and plans during beam
review. ‘Baselining’ means the approval for treatment and prohibition of further
modification.
Only those plans that have been baselined and set as active in adaPTprescribe
become accessible using adaPTdeliver.
Also those plans that have been received via the OIS and that have already been
irradiated at least once using adaPTdeliver become visible in adaPTprescribe. This
allows these plans to be irradiated again using standalone mode, if necessary.
WARNING Beam algorithms and parameters can be modified both on the TPS and
the PTS side. A similar algorithm and a parameter database to compute
equipment settings out of clinical parameters exists both on the PTS
and the TPS, which means there is a risk of inconsistent results.
As a treatment center, it is your responsibility to perform a set of quality
assurance measurements to verify the coherence between both
algorithms and parameter databases.
