METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED EVALUATION OF MULTIPLE PORTAL DOSE IMAGES IN RADIATION THERAPY
First Claim
1. A method of evaluating a portal dose image, comprising:
- obtaining a template from a database, the template prescribing one or more evaluation criteria;
receiving a first portal dose image; and
using a processor to evaluate the first portal dose image based at least in part on the one or more evaluation criteria from the template.

Abstract
A method of evaluating a portal dose image includes obtaining a template from a database, the template prescribing one or more evaluation criteria, receiving a first portal dose image, and using a processor to evaluate the first portal dose image based at least in part on the one or more evaluation criteria from the template. In some embodiments, a second image is automatically evaluated after the first image is evaluated. A system for evaluating a portal dose image includes a processor that is communicatively coupled to a database, the database having a template that prescribes one or more evaluation criteria, wherein the processor is configured to obtain the template from the database, receive a first portal dose image, and evaluate the first portal dose image based at least in part on the one or more evaluation criteria from the template.
