Volumetric modulated craniospinal irradiation workflow optimization through quantitative analytics: a single-institution case study comparing pediatric and adult settings

ConclusionsSimple descriptive statistics and regression modeling can be used to assess workflow efficiency and estimate radiation treatment times based on patient and technique-specific factors. We modeled VMAT CSI treatment delivery times at our pediatric and adult hospitals to set time expectations for IGRT and beam delivery. Workflow analytics can identify opportunities to minimize time inefficiencies and optimize coordination of care.
