Accuracy of computerized radiation treatment planning. 1979

T Väyrynen, and K Kiviniitty, and P J Taskinen

The accuracy of computerized dose planning depends essentially on the computer program. The quickest and simplest way to assess the accuracy of a commercial program is to compare the results of the computer calculations with measured values. The present report deals with the accuracy of the RADPLAN dose planning program in different situations easy to control. The test methods are also applicable to other corresponding systems.
