DCID 9509 “Purpose of Reference For RT Physician Intent Input”. |
The RT Physician Intent Sequence (3010,0057) allows one or more clinical intents to be identified for treatment in a treatment course. For example, the simultaneous treatment of multiple primary targets may require separate intents to be defined, each with its own prescription(s) and having different sets of reference imaging studies.
RT Protocol Code Sequence (3010,005B) contains a coded description of the radiotherapy clinical protocol being followed for the patient. This is not necessarily the same as the Procedure Step protocol.
The purpose of this Sequence is to reference all the Instances that have been used by the RT Physician to establish the Intent. It may include the Images that were used in the treatment planning process, which are also referenced in the Planning Input Information Sequence (3010,0076) of the RT Enhanced Prescription Module.
When there are multiple Purposes of References, one Item will be included for each purpose.
The RT Treatment Approach Label (3010,0056) is a short human-readable text label that is meaningful in the context of the patient's disease and the treatment site. Such labels may be found in the literature, or defined as local departmental naming conventions. They are usually not standardized. Examples are terms like Conformal, Conical_Arc, Conformal_Arc, Electron Boost for Breast, TBI, TMI, TSE, CSI, IMAT_VMAT, Total_Spine.
