Figure 82: Dose and Fraction Review Window with Inaccuracies<br />

Option 2: Add a Prescription with Phases,<br />

Manually Record Treatments, then Treat<br />

Remaining Fields from the System<br />

Patient Setup<br />

Identifies a mismatch. Displays inaccurate data.<br />

Identifies an excess treatment delivered.<br />

Consider the patient information below as a typical example for Option 2:<br />

• The physician prescribes 4500cGy at 180 per day.<br />

• Before you changed to MOSAIQ, the patient received 4140 cGy at 180 per day<br />

(23 fractions). The radiation oncologist creates a prescription that documents the<br />

dose delivered to date (4140 cGy) as 1 fraction.<br />

• The clinician manually records the treatment for the dose delivered to date (4140<br />

cGy) and adds the start date and the correct total MU per field.<br />

• The clinician then appends the prescription to show the remaining<br />

dose/treatments in a second fractionation phase that includes a total prescribed<br />

dose of 360 cGy, a fractional dose of 180, and a Daily fractionation pattern.<br />

• The clinician uses the Treatment Chart/Calendar to schedule and treat the<br />

remaining dose.
