Manually Creating Treatment Fields
To create treatment fields, you copy simulation fields or other treatment fields. However, you
can also create a treatment field “from scratch” — for example, if the patient treatment does
not import from your treatment planning system using DICOM.
Manually Creating a Treatment Field
Most treatment fields are imported from a treatment planning system, but you may
sometimes need to add a treatment field manually.
CAUTION
To add a treatment field, you must have Clinical | Field Defs | Modify
rights.
1. In the Diagnoses and Interventions window, click the radiation prescription for which to
create a treatment field.
2. Click TX Field to open the Treatment Field dialog box.
Figure 18: Treatment Field Definition Dialog Box
The Treatment Field Definition dialog box contains the header information and
geometric parameters from the Simulation Field dialog box, plus additional fields to
define the dose. You must, at minimum, complete the Field, Machine, Tolerance,Type
and Modality fields, and apply a tolerance table.
