Clinical Tools

Calculators and reference tables for radiosurgery and radiation oncology. Each tool states its model and sources. Built for teaching and discussion; for patient care, use the approved treatment plan and your team's dose constraints.

Calculators

Radiosurgery Dose Calculator

SRS BED with treatment time, pre-plan falloff and V12Gy by target size and platform, renormalization, and normal tissue risk.

→

BED, EQD2, Re-irradiation and Treatment Gap Calculator

BED and EQD2 at any α/β, isoeffect conversion, CNS re-irradiation sums, common schedules, and missed-day compensation.

→

An iPhone app with these calculators is in testing.

Reference tables

Radiosurgery Dose Tables

Trial schedules (RTOG 90-05, N107C, A071801, spine), TG-101/HyTEC/QUANTEC limits, and functional SRS doses.

→

CNS Radiation Toxicity: Management and Drug Doses

Necrosis, edema, seizures, neurocognition, nausea, spine SBRT and late effects, with drug doses, evidence type and sources.

→

Timing Radiation Around Systemic Therapy and Surgery

Drug hold intervals around SRS and fractionated RT, searchable by name, brand or class, plus pre- and post-op SRS timing.

→

Plan-Quality Metrics and Prognostic Scores

Conformity and gradient indices, BED/EQD2, prognostic scores (GPA; NOMS/SINS/ESCC), and TG-101/QUANTEC/HyTEC constraint references.

→

Where these tools are used

Companion Library

Stereotactic Radiosurgery

Dose selection, platforms, planning and QA, and the cranial and spinal indications.

→

Companion Library

Radiation Oncology

Disease-site reviews, dose anchors, radiobiology and therapy physics.
