ADAPT Marketplace

ADAPT Marketplace facilitates the exchange of XML-based radiation therapy planning templates to standardize and streamline Online Adaptive Radiotherapy (OART) practices across institutions.

Key Features:

• Template Sharing: Supports uploading and downloading of XML-based treatment planning templates compatible with the Ethos treatment planning system and Intelligent Optimization Engine.
• Template Comparison: Enables comparison of radiation therapy planning templates to evaluate and optimize treatment approaches.
• Template Editing: Includes functionality for editing XML-based templates directly within the platform.
• Template Validation: Incorporates validation mechanisms to ensure quality and consistency of uploaded templates.

Scientific Applications:

• Online Adaptive Radiotherapy Standardization: Reduces variability in treatment quality across institutions by promoting standardized planning templates for personalized cancer care.
• Multi-Site Treatment Planning: Supports template development for anatomical treatment sites including pelvis, thorax, head-and-neck, and abdomen.
• Collaborative Radiation Oncology Research: Enables knowledge exchange and collaborative innovation in OART across academic, non-academic, and industrial sectors.

Methodology:

ADAPT Marketplace was developed using the Django web framework with a structured process involving collaborator consultations, prototyping, alpha testing with predefined tasks, and beta testing with unscripted evaluations.
