How adaPT prescribe is Organized
Treatment plans including the patient, study, plan, and beam definition are exported
from the Treatment Planning System (TPS), imported into the PTS database and
displayed in adaPTprescribe.
The adaPTprescribe application is used to review and baseline plans and beams in
preparation for treatment. Those plans and beams that have been baselined become
accessible using adaPTdeliver. (For information on adaPTdeliver, refer to Chapter 31,
“Introducing 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.
A patient can have one or multiple studies. A study can consist of one or multiple
plans; and each plan can comprise one or multiple beams. And in turn, a beam can
comprise multiple layers.
