The header of the B
EAM SELECTION SCREEN now displays the type of accessory, if any,
and its identifier, as follows:
Pencil Beam Scanning:
No accessory: no accessory type
One accessory: accessory type and identifier
The list area is now filled with the beam(s) that you selected from the S
ESSION
DEFINITION SCREEN.
If there are multiple beams in the list, click the beam that you want to process first.
The selected beam appears in a highlighted box.
The associated data appear in the information area. You have to complete all
remaining treatment session steps with this beam and then you can select a next
beam from the list area.
Similar to the S
ESSION DEFINITION SCREEN, the Patient & Plan, Beam, and Layers tabs
are also available on the information area of the B
EAM SELECTION SCREEN.
Initially, most of the fields in the information area of the B
EAM SELECTION SCREEN are
blank; only the patient name, study, plan, and beam are listed in the list area. To have
the fields on the information area filled out, click the required beam in the list area.
Fields are filled in up to the lowest level that you select in the list area. E.g., if you
click the plan in the list area, only the patient, study, and plan information appear, not
the beam information.
To proceed to the next step in the irradiation process, i.e., to actually prepare the
equipment for irradiation, double-click the desired beam (or click the beam and click
Next in the rightmost corner at the bottom of the screen). You will proceed to the
Preparation step. For information, refer to chapter “Preparing the Equipment for
Irradiation“ on page 33-1.
Important In treatment mode, the approval to deliver a treatment beam to the
patient is under the responsibility of the Radiation Therapy
Technologist (RTT) as at Proton Therapy System (PTS) level no
distinction can be made between a calibrated/approved and a non-
calibrated/non-approved beam.
