CONSTRUCTION OF REMOTE RADIOTHERAPY PLANNING SYSTEM USING REMOTE DISK MOUNT TECHNIQUE

We constructed remote radiotherapy planning system using remote disk mount technique. Remote disk mount technique is to start system from network disk drive instead of internal disk drive. By using this system, a radiotherapy plan at an affiliated institution could be made in central institution only by changing the mount disk. Although there took a few seconds to start system from remote disk drive because of network speeds, we could make a radiotherapy plan with no stress if the system started from mount disk. For this system, we used business line with VPN (virtual private network) system in order to protect the private data. This system can correspond to two or more institutions by changing the mount disk and is useful for remote radiotherapy.
