+ | This product is not intended to replace CT imaging or other internal imaging modalities and should be used only in cases where a qualified radiation oncologist has made appropriate determination of the acceptability of a “clinical set up” approach, independent of any information provided by this application. In other words, the role of this product is to simply ensure efficient and accurate ordering of a patient-specific device from our company, in cases where a licensed radiation oncologist has predetermined that such a device and treatment approach is appropriate for the patient at hand. Thus this device’s indications for use include patients with a variety of cancer and disease conditions, under the direct supervision and guidance of a radiation oncologist that has prescribed a desired dose of radiation to be delivered to the patient. | ||

- | As with any cloud based application there is always concern with system availability and uptime. Astroid makes use of caching at various system levels to improve performance and mitigate some of these concerns, however, this can never provide 100% assurance and reliability. Since customer has unique needs, specific business agreements will be entered into with each customer as appropriate to detail the reliability guarantees and assurances. Data integrity is generally a less variable concern, as Astroid' | + | FIXME - We need to discuss |

- | Since data integrity is such a critical feature for application such as this, the Astroid Planning App automatically saves both the state of the application and the working record data on a timer (triggering every minute or less) as well as on exit of any create or edit event in the application.

- | Users are responsible for inputting a lot of data into the Astroid Planning App to develop clinical treatment plans. In the course of entering such data, there are opportunities for users to enter incorrect information. Although users are responsible for checking for such errors before clinical treatment, Astroid does provide some assistance in ensuring data limitations are met by a plan. Machine energy (range) limits, gantry angles, patient support (couch) angles, snout extensions, as well as shifter and aperture sizes and availability are all explicitly limited to user configured levels within the Astroid Planning App controls.
