Follow along below to understand the steps of automated prostate treatment planning with ProstatePlan RT

 

1: Automatically create required structures

Automated creation of planning structures:

  • PTVs
  • PRVs;
  • Non-overlapping PRVs;
  • PRV overlaps with PTVs;
  • Rectal tuning;
  • Separating nested targets;
  • Adding SVs to PTV High;
  • Choosing your own structure prefixes.

2: Strategic beam placement

Beam placement is automated based on geometry of target volume

  • Planner selects:
    • IMRT or VMAT option;
    • Number of beams, or number of arcs.

3: Automated Plan Optimization

  • IMRT or VMAT optimization fully automated
  • A user-defined optimization objectives template is used to:
    • Ensure target volume coverage and uniformity
    • Maximize high dose conformity
    • Achieve compactness of intermediate dose

4: Forward dose calculation

  • Leaf sequencing (IMRT) and forward dose calculation are completed automatically
  • No user interaction required

Plan generated in only minutes*

* dependent on optimization/forward calculation algorithms/computational resource. Data on file

Built-in Hotspot Cooling

Automatically control hotspots in up to three dose levels
