The development of dose planning.
In the very earliest days, there was no computerized dose-planning system. However, it was not long that the first dose-planning system KULA was developed in the mid-1980s. It soon became apparent that while this was geometrically accurate, it was not as visually attractive as programs used by other technologies. It had been designed in the era prior to computerized imaging and had only limited capacity for dosimetry. It was followed by GammaPlan, which has evolved over the years into a sophisticated multiparameter system with very advanced graphic features.
