Design and Validation of Remote Radiotherapy System / 中国医疗器械杂志

ABSTRACT

Telemedicine technology is a means of deploying medical resources with low cost and high efficiency. A set of remote radiotherapy system based on Citrix was designed in this paper, so that the senior radiation therapists from the developed areas can provide medical services effectively for the patients in the rural areas. This paper focused on the design ideas and the detail of the technical implementation of how to design a remote radiotherapy system based on the existing equipment in the primary hospital. And the technical reliability and security of the remote radiotherapy system were verified by the scientific test method with pairwise comparison. The early practical experience shows that through the remote radiotherapy system the primary radiotherapy personnel and the radiotherapy experts from thirdgrade class-A hospital can form effective alliance in radiotherapy techniques to allow patients in rural areas to receive more professional radiation therapy.
