Plan evaluation is a key step in the radiotherapy treatment workflow. Central to this step is
the assessment of treatment plan quality. Hence, it is important to agree on what we mean …

With new radiotherapy techniques, treatment delivery is becoming more complex and
accordingly, these treatment techniques require dosimetry audits to test advanced aspects of …

Purpose Plan complexity and robustness are two essential aspects of treatment plan quality
but there is a great variability in their management in clinical practice. This study reports the …

Background and purpose We performed a multi-centre intercomparison of VMAT dose
planning and pre-treatment verification. The aims were to analyse the dose plans in terms of …

Purpose Automated planning techniques aim to reduce manual planning time and inter-
operator variability without compromising the plan quality which is particularly challenging …

Abstract The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has established a database
describing activities of dosimetry audit networks (DAN) in radiotherapy. Since 2010 the data …

Abstract Introduction: Within an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) co-ordinated
research project (CRP), a remote end-to-end dosimetric quality audit for intensity modulated …

Dosimetry audit is a key component in quality management programmes in radiotherapy,
playing an important role in the safe implementation of new treatment modalities and …

Abstract Background and Purpose Planning on a static dataset that reflects the simulation
day anatomy is routine for SBRT. We hypothesize the quality of on-table adaptive plans is …

Purpose In stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer, intrafraction
motion is an important source of treatment uncertainty as it could not be completely …
