Adding Dose Limit Dose Action Points<br />
Dose Limit dose action points let you make a recurring alert for a dose related<br />
task. For example, you must change the field shape to avoid critical structures<br />
such as the spinal cord. In this exercise, you will add a Dose Limit dose action<br />
point.<br />
For Dose Action Points to operate correctly, you must set up<br />
dosimetry for the applicable dose tracking site. To do so,<br />
add the dose site coefficients that calculate the dose<br />
contributions from each applicable prescription site. Refer<br />
to Lesson 6 in Module II of this guide.<br />
