Features• ANSI C
• runs on command line
• platform independent i/o routines, i.e. runs on Intel x86 (Windows, Linux, little endian) via SAMBA/NFS and on PA -RISC (HP-UX, big endian)
• implemented as plugin for CadPlan GUI (by means of korn-shell wrapper script)
Features (cont´d)
• Online help (-h Option)
• Verbose mode (-v option) to trace problems
• Trim dose matrix to body contour (-t Option)
• Automatically checks for valid filenames
• Easy installation and simple usage
• It´s small
Usage as CadPlan plugin
• Once imported to CadPlan the externally calculated plan can be reviewed like any other locally calculated treatment plan
Resolution issues
• The CadPlan dose grid is fixed to a maximum number of 160112 grid points, i.e. the maximum size of the dose matrix depends on the grid spacing
• Reduction of grid spacing (e.g. from 2.5 mm to 1.25 mm) may lead to incomplete coverage of the regions of interest
Resolution issues (cont´d)
• If necessary redefine the center of the calculation area to cover regions of interest
Resolution issues (cont´d)
• Perform steps 3-5 as described above to import the externally calculated dose matrix with high resolution grid spacing.
• psi2cad will automatically detect the new grid and offset of the calculation area
