In‐house quality check of external beam plans using 3D treatment planning systems — a DVH comparison

This paper presents a new approach towards the quality assurance of external beam plans using in‐house‐developed DICOM import and export software in a clinical setup. The new approach is different from what is currently used in most clinics, viz., only MU and point dose are verified. The DICOM‐RT so...
