Abstract
Confirmation of patient information is required to ensure the safety of radiation therapy. The purpose of this study was to construct a system that facilitates radiation therapy operations by linking a radiation therapy information system to a smartphone. By linking a smartphone to a radiation therapy operation support system, without using a PC terminal, we were able to input information about the patient’s position and fixation into images taken with a smartphone. In addition, patient information could be directly linked into the radiation therapy information system. In addition, patient information could be verified in the irradiation room by synchronizing the smartphone with the radiation therapy support system. The questionnaire was highly evaluated in terms of radio reception, usability, visibility and barcode reading. In this study, by linking a smartphone to a radiotherapy information system, it was possible to construct a system that facilitates radiotherapy operations by checking and registering patient information at hand.
