US Patent 11000704 Managing radiotherapy systems

Embodiments disclose methods and apparatus for managing the provision of radiotherapy treatment. The method includes storing a database of calibration settings for a plurality of components of a first radiotherapy system. The calibration settings may be used by the first radiotherapy system to translate treatment plans into instructions for the plurality of components to carry out. The method further includes deriving from the database allowable ranges of values for the calibration settings. The method also includes receiving from a second radiotherapy system calibration settings for the second radiotherapy system prior to implementation of a treatment plan, comparing the calibration settings for the second radiotherapy system with the derived allowable ranges of values, and generating an alert signal when a subset of the calibration settings for the second radiotherapy system falls outside the allowable range of values.
