Once Astroid has been purchased, Astroid staff will assist with beam model creation, software installation, and user training. Users will be generally be trained at two separate levels, system administrators and end users. System administrators will be setup with appropriate access and tools for managing software including both the local and cloud resources. End users will be primarily trained on the details of generating high-quality treatment plans using the local client portion of the application suite. The beam modeling and equipment setup processes are explained more fully in the Dosimetry App Commissioning Guide.

The Astroid Planning App includes both a local User Client and a cloud-based calculation provider, therefore, there are specific requirements on computers in which the local client application can be installed. Please see the System Requirements page for details.
