 ===== Intended Use =====
-The Astroid Planning App is an interactive end user application that leverages the existing .decimal Astroid Dosimetry App library [FDA 510(k) K150547] of functions (accessed through the Thinknode® cloud services framework) for device creation, dose calculation, optimization, and many other purposes, for the intended use and primary purpose of enabling radiotherapy professionals to efficiently design and analyze proton radiotherapy treatment plans.
+The decimal3D App is an interactive end user application that leverages advanced optical scanning technology to capture a three dimensional, full color, dimensionally accurate rendering of a patient. This rendering can be used for multiple applications including but not limited to digitizing the shape of a physician drawn treatment area and design of the electron aperture to treat this area. The decimal3D includes functionality for the electron aperture to be ordered.
 ===== User Profile =====
-The Astroid Planning App is a tool to develop radiotherapy treatment plans for delivery using a proton therapy system. Such plans are generally developed to meet the directives of a physician through a formal documented prescription. As such, the users of this application are expected to be supervised by an attending physician and should themselves be experienced in the physics and dosimetric characteristics of proton radiotherapy. Additionally, users are expected to have formal training in general radiotherapy techniques and best practices, proton therapy specific planning techniques, and general principles of patient safety and care. Most users will have college-level training or degrees, as well as licensure for their particular roles and responsibilities through their state, nation, or professional association. Users should also be well versed in regulations regarding protection of patient health information and have a basic understanding of standard practices regarding computer usage and security.
+The decimal3D should be used the guidance of a physician by authorized users such as physicists, certified medical dosimetrists, radiations therapists, radiologic technologists, nurses and those who have been trained by the .decimal staff or by the clinical staff.

 ==== Coordinates and Units of Measure ====
-The following is a list of several important items that users should understand in regards to the information displays in the Astroid Planning Application:
+FIXME- should we delete this
-  * The Astroid Planning exclusively uses DICOM coordinate systems for display information (machine based coordinates are NOT available)
-  * All linear dimensions are shown in millimeters (mm)
-  * All angular dimensions are shown in degrees (deg)
-  * All radiation dose quantities will be shown with their corresponding units within the application (e.g. Gy(RBE) or %)
-  * All date/time values are provided in a // dd/mm/yyyy h:m:s // format using local time on a 24 hour clock
-  * All date and time notifications in Astroid should match current Windows OS date and time, including proper use of daylight savings time where appropriate (note: Astroid will display in 24 hour format, while Windows may display in am/pm depending on local settings)
