Digital treatment planning data and accompanying documentation for

Image Guided Therapy QA Center (ITC)
at Washington University in St. Louis.
For each credentialing or protocol case submission, the following
four items are to be sent to the ITC:

- Structure Contours for all protocol-specified
Target Volumes and Organs-at-Risk,

used by the ITC in preparing protocol data for evaluation.
Please contact the ITC ([email protected] or 314-747-5415)
for web login information needed to access this form.
