Entering Corrections
The Patient Position Verification System (PPVS) software is used to perform the
correction vector calculation.
For detailed information on how to use adaPTinsight, refer to the related
documentation listed in chapter “About this Manual”.
When the correction vector is calculated, it is sent directly from adaPTinsight to the
patient positioner. However, the user also has the option to manually enter a
correction vector. In order to do so, click Enter correction from the E
QUIPMENT
PREPARATION SCREEN and enter the corrections that are obtained from the PPVS
software in the corresponding fields on the B
EAM CORRECTION SCREEN.

Note: The position of the PPS is NOT verified against the treatment plan. However,
its position is recorded in the irradiation report.
Validating the Positioning Parameters
When, as a therapist, you are confident that the patient has been positioned
correctly, click the Confirm preparation button to validate the positioning
parameters.
Note: It may take a few iterations to get to the desired position.
The colored state bar reads Ready (indicated by the green color).
