-The Astroid Planning App is an interactive end user application for proton treatment planning for the intended use and primary purpose of enabling radiotherapy professionals to efficiently design and analyze proton radiotherapy treatment plans. This Astroid Planning App leverages the existing .decimal Astroid Dosimetry App [FDA 510(k) K150547], which is library of treatment planning functions accessed through the Thinknode® cloud services frameworkfor device creationdose calculation, optimization, and all other dosimetry and processing calculations. Since the Astroid Dosimetry App is responsible for performing the calculations, the scope of this Astroid Planning App is to be the interface for end users to input treatment planning data and review the results. Typical indications for use of this application are for the treatment of persons with cancer, over a wide range of potential disease locationsIn the most common use case of the software, users will import patient data from existing imaging and contouring software programs, manage physician prescription and intent information, develop a proton treatment planand analyze the plan to determine how well it meets the physician’s goalsSince the critical treatment planning functions and calculations are handled outside this software application, by a software of known quality and pedigree, the primary and most frequently used functions of this software are the record keeping service (for patient data storage), user interface controls, and visualization tools.+The primary purpose of this product is to provide an advanced optical scanning technology using an iPad App that enables the user to capture three dimensionalfull colordimensionally accurate of the patient and the treatment area drawn by the physicianThe user is then able to digitize the treatment areadesign the electron aperture as well as place the beam utilizing decimal3DThe decimal3D app also allows the user to order through an interface with the decimal Direct API
  
-Furthermore, since the accuracy of information computed and displayed by an application such as this is very important to the proper treatment of patients, it is critical that users have the appropriate educational and clinical experience backgrounds to adequately understand and use the product. Additionally, since each radiotherapy treatment machine produces a unique beam of radiation, there is much responsibility on the end users to adequately commission and test this software over the full range of expected treatment conditions before the system is utilized for patient treatment.+Furthermore, since the accuracy of information displayed by an application such as this is very important to the proper treatment of patients, it is critical that users have the appropriate educational and clinical experience backgrounds to adequately understand and use the product.
