Radiation therapy simulation system (An assembly of diagnostic and radiation therapy devices comprising a radiation therapy simulation system intended for radiation therapy treatment planning applications. It is configured as a diagnostic x-ray system, e.g., fluoroscopic, planar, computed tomography (CT) with associated hardware and software. It is used to localize the field volume to be exposed during radiation therapy and to confirm the position and size of the therapeutic irradiation field produced by a specific set of treatment parameters that have been developed. A radiation therapy treatment planning system (RTTPS) will typically interface to receive the parameters being measured for further use in treatment calculations.)
