More Information
Summary:A graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a representation of a target volume and sub-volumes of the target volume is rendered and displayed. Information in computer system memory that includes a dose rate received by each sub-volume is accessed. A value of an attribute is associated with each sub-volume, where the value corresponds to an amount of the dose rate received by that sub-volume. Each sub-volume is then rendered according to that value. The GUI may include a dose rate-volume histogram and/or an irradiation time-volume histogram for the target volume.
