RTPlanQCSuite: A Software Enabling Automated Treatment Safety Checks for Radiotherapy Cancer Patients

South Western Sydney Local Health District


The aim of this project is to develop new software and processes to improve the efficiency of quality assurance checks required for the safe and accurate delivery of prescribed radiation treatment for each radiotherapy patient. RTPlanQCSuite (PlanChecker and AutoEPID) has been developed, tested, and clinically implemented by our multidisciplinary team. 

The systems were integrated into our routine workflow and have been used on over 3600 patients treated with advanced radiotherapy since 2014 and around fifteen new patients on a daily basis, not only saving thousands of hours spent on quality assurance but also ensuring patient safety and treatment quality.​
