A medical workstation for the evaluation of alternative 3D radiotherapy treatment plans.
A medical workstation for the evaluation of alternative 3D radiotherapy plans is described. Our system can simultaneously apply qualitative as well as quantitative evaluation methods to as many as three 3D dose distributions. The user interface of the workstation has been designed with the demands of radiation oncologists in mind. The handling of the large amounts of 3D data (CT data, up to three 3D dose distributions, volumes of interest) is assisted by computer graphics.
