Question
What are the needed files to generate a beam model?
Answer
Below files are needed for myQA iON beam model:
- Commissioning Beam Data – The beam data in CSV format of the following from the TPS
- Absolute Dosimetry
- Pristine Bragg Peaks
- Spot Profiles
- Scanners – Needed for each scanner
- HU to density table
- HU to material conversion table
- Anonymized Patients – Multiple test plans that will be used for the validation and fine tune of the beam model. It requires the complete set of DICOM files (CT images, RT Structures, RT Plan, RT Dose, and irradiation logs (optional).
- Patient plan with the use of range shifter
- Patient plan without using range shifter
- Patient plan with low energy beam
- Patient plan with high energy beam
- Patient plan (simple case)
- Patient plan (complex case)
- Machine physical parameters
- Range shifter information and focal distances from isocenter
