PLANNING SYSTEM FOR INTRAOPERATIVE RADIATION THERAPY AND METHOD FOR CARRYING OUT SAID PLANNING

摘要

The invention relates to a simulation and planning system for intraoperative radiation therapy and to a method enabling said system to be used for treatment studies, simulation, planning, training and recording, which system generally includes: a central processing unit or computer (1) for management and control and software-based communication with the rest of the devices and the user; one or more monitors or screens (2) for viewing images and peripherals responsible for gathering data relating to the actions performed by the user; a deformation simulation module for the virtual simulation of the deformation produced in the organs and tissues during the process; algorithms for instantly calculating the dose of radiation applied during the radiation therapy treatment simulation and means for recording all of the activities carried out and generating a full dosimetric report.
