Analytical Tools for Radiation Oncology

Description

Designed for the import, analysis, and visualization of dosimetric and volumetric data in Radiation Oncology, the tools herein enable import of dose-volume histogram information from multiple treatment planning system platforms and 3D structural representations and dosimetric information from 'DICOM-RT' files. These tools also enable subsequent visualization and statistical analysis of these data.
