 Automatic: adaPTdeliver software is able to retrieve all available irradiation
records from the Beam Management System (BMS) software automatically
and provides detailed records. In automatic recovery, if the DCEU value
entered is higher than the irradiation records, the remaining is simulated.
 Manual recovery from file: adaPTdeliver software is not able to retrieve
irradiation records from the BMS software. A manual intervention by the
IBA Operator is needed. This can provide detailed records.
 Manual recovery from DCEU values: The delivered dose measured by the
DCEU is used to simulate the corresponding dose distribution (layers and
spots). This should be the last resort since the distribution of the dose is not
‘true’ but simulated.
3. Resuming irradiation
The irradiation can be resumed either in the same session or in a new one.
 In the same session: This is possible for online recovery only.
 In a new session: This is possible for offline recovery, or when it is not
possible to continue the treatment due to other reasons (patient’s
conditions, schedule, etc).
A flowchart of the summary of the above steps necessary for the resumption of the
irradiation is given in Figure 41-1.
