The single prescription dose plans have a higher CI than the equivalent multiple prescription dose plans. This is due to the fact that the single prescription dose was always chosen based on the largest metastasis, making it equal to the lowest of the equivalent multiple prescription doses. As expected, GI scores for plans with multiple prescription doses are similar to those for plans with the equivalent single prescription dose. Conclusion: Our proposed method to calculate CI and GI for plans with multiple prescription doses is straightforward to implement and allows comparisons with data from historical single prescription dose plans.

Material/Methods: 88 male pelvis CT scans from patients who had previously been treated at a conventional LINAC (mean age 71,[50 85years]) were analysed. Three patients with hip prostheses were excluded, leaving a total of 57 prostate and 28 prostatectomy patients. Two dosimetrists contoured the prostate (if present), bladder, rectum, small bowel, femoral heads, pelvic bones and external contour of the patients. If patient had fiducials or gold seeds, these were contoured separately. Mean ED value was obtained for each contour. For each organ, the maximum, minimum and average ED values and their SDs were analysed. In CTs with outlying organ EDs, a prostate dosimetry was performed according to the centre's protocols with its own ED; the same dosimetry was calculated on the ED values obtained in the first part of the study, analysing the dosimetric difference. Keywords: conformity, quality metrics, multiple dose levels
