Abstract: | Medical Dosimetrists are commonly called upon to participate in the design of radiation oncology treatment records. The Medical Dosimetrist is uniquely qualified to provide input in the areas of treatment planning, simulation and delivery documentation. An idealized chart can facilitate the planning and delivery of quality patient care and lead the user to document such care. This publication outlines the essential minimum requirements for inclusion in a radiation oncology treatment chart. Conventional treatment record keeping has been by hard-copy documentation. Paperless treatment record models are presently being tested for efficacy. Either approach should seek to: maintain quality of patient care, enhance communication, and provide integrity in documentation. |
