Report of Task Group 201 of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine: Quality management of external beam therapy data transfer

R. Alfredo Siochi et al.

Summary: This report summarizes findings and recommendations from a task group on quality assurance of external beam treatment data transfer, aiming to assist medical physicists in designing their own data transfer quality management program. Recommended tests are suggested based on collective experience, aiming to ensure the quality of data transfers and move towards open standards compatibility.

Report of AAPM Task Group 155: Megavoltage photon beam dosimetry in small fields and non-equilibrium conditions

Indra J. Das et al.

Summary: Small-field dosimetry used in advanced treatment technologies faces challenges such as loss of lateral charged particle equilibrium, occlusion of the primary photon source, and limited choices of suitable radiation detectors. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and AAPM provide guidelines on dosimetry for small fields, aiming to improve accuracy in dose measurements.

EReport of Task Group 201 of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine: Quality management of external beam therapy data transfer

R. Alfredo Siochi et al.

Summary: This report summarizes the findings and recommendations from the task group on quality assurance of external beam treatment data transfer, aiming to assist medical physicists in designing their own data transfer quality management program. Various data flow models and general data test characteristics are described, with recommended tests suggested based on collective experience. The report emphasizes the importance of ensuring the quality of data transfers as treatment complexity evolves, and recommends moving towards data transfer open standards compatibility.
