adaPT
insight
The adaPTinsight application enables to perform Image Guided Proton Therapy
(IGPT). The required patient setup verifications are performed prior to treatment
using either stereoscopic 2D and/or 3D images (depending on the TR hardware
configuration).
In order to do this, adaPTinsight features the following main functions:
It acts as a control interface for X-ray imaging hardware such as X-ray generators
and flat panels.
It acts as an interface between the TPS, the OIS, and the PTS for patient position
verification.
It enables to automatically or manually compute alignment corrections between
the treatment plan’s images and the radiographs acquired in the treatment
room.
The correction generated by adaPTinsight is expressed in the IEC-TTCS coordinates.
It represents the shift that needs to be applied to the PPS in order to properly align
the patient to the prescribed position. The order in which the rotations and
translations are expressed is the one defined by the IEC 61217 standard.
The adaPTinsight application calculates corrections for:
