  • Causa
    An anomaly has been identified with varian eclipse treatment planning system and aria radiation oncology (rt chart application) where adding a reference point in aria rt chart and editing the field dose contributions may change the prescribed dose per fraction in eclipse. a reference point added in aria rt chart does not have a location and is sometimes referred to as a "dose prescription volume" or dpv. if a reference point without location or dpv is added in aria rt chart and the field dose contribution of the reference point is edited this may cause the dose per fraction and total prescribed dose of an unapproved treatment plan in eclipse to change. this anomaly can occur when there is plan normalization such that the total done and the total dose at primary have different values.
