Centralized Treatment Planning

At American Oncology Institute, centralized treatment planning in radiation therapy (RT) involves the consolidation of treatment planning activities, resources, and expertise into a central location or department within our healthcare institution. This approach offers several benefits:

• Expertise and Consistency: Centralizing treatment planning allows for a team of experienced dosimetrists, medical physicists, and radiation oncologists to work together, ensuring that treatment plans are of high quality and consistent across all patients.
• Standardization and Best Practices: Centralization promotes the adoption of standardized treatment planning protocols and best practices, leading to improved treatment outcomes and reduced errors.
• Efficiency and Workflow Optimization: Centralization can streamline the treatment planning process, reducing the time required to develop and deliver treatment plans, which can be especially beneficial in high-volume centers.
