Practical Considerations
- RayStation 10 1 is software, not an implanted or disposable device; it does not have a physical size or vascular compatibility requirements.
- It must be used with compatible imaging, treatment-delivery, oncology information, and record-and-verify systems validated by the treating facility.
- Treatment plans require review and approval by qualified radiation oncology professionals before delivery.
- MRI, CT, PET, and other imaging data may be used only when the imaging workflow, image registration, and software compatibility have been appropriately validated.
- The software does not replace clinical judgment, quality assurance, machine checks, or required patient-specific treatment-plan verification.
