Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate re-utilization by providing a permanent file which stores a creative parameter, stored in a latest parameter memory means, as a permanent file. CONSTITUTION:When the same job is similarily executed again, parameters, a calculating result in the middle of calculation, and a final calculating result are read from a permanent file group 7 to file them in a parameter latest file 5. An execution stage 2 bypasses a create layer 4 once along with execution of a job, and is conveyed to an execution register 6 after accessing the parameter latest file 5, and indication is made so that data is transmitted as usual to the execution stage 2. In which case, when a parameter is varied, execution is made after the content of the execution register 6 is varied by the create layer 4. However, parameters passing the create layer 4 of the execution stage 2 are all stored in the parameter latest file 5 despite of whether contents are varied. Thereby, latest information is normally set in the parameter latest file 5.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a radiation therapy planning device, and in particular, a device that automatically stores the latest parameters generated in a complicated job step and makes it easy to use them again. It relates to a radiation therapy planning device.

[Prior Art] Conventional radiation therapy planning apparatuses store the results of inputting and calculating parameters and the like as a job is executed by an artificial means such as file management performed by an operator or the like.

Therefore, after finishing a job, in order to reproduce this job, either access the stored file and move it to the execution stage one by one, or input and calculate the same parameters again. Data had to be created sequentially.

[Problems to be solved] In the conventional radiation therapy planning system described above, various parameters and calculation results created as a job is performed are stored in a file by human means. If you issue a job end command or forget to perform file management and end a job, the parameters and calculation results created during job execution will disappear instantly, making it impossible to reproduce the job. There was a problem that it became troublesome.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a radiation treatment planning device that automatically stores the latest parameters generated in a complicated job step and facilitates reuse.

[Means for Solving Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the radiation therapy planning device of the present invention includes: an initial stage setting means for setting an initial stage when the power is turned on; a keyboard input means for executing a job and setting various parameters; an execution stage that executes a job and creates a data group; a latest parameter storage means that stores various creation parameters generated by this execution stage; and an execution stage that inputs the creation parameters from the execution stage or the latest parameter storage means. This configuration includes an execution register for setting execution parameters, and a permanent file for storing the creation parameters stored in the latest parameter storage means as a permanent file.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a radiation treatment planning apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the same figure, ■ is the first 1 that is automatically set when the power is turned on.
This is the January menu stage (the first month stage), and the primitive stage set here is modified by each stage as the job is executed thereafter, and the stage moves to the execution stage 2 of the job.

Next, the execution stage 2 inputs and processes various job selection instructions and predetermined input data itself from the keyboard input means 3. Furthermore, the execution stage 2 advances the processing of predetermined data from the keyboard input means 3 as the job is executed, and creates intermediate calculation results)I'! Report to 4.

This create layer 4 automatically stores its output in the latest parameter file 5 one after another without using any artificial file management means. Further, the output of the create layer 4 is simultaneously temporarily stored in the execution register 6 and connected to the execution stage 2.

Normally, the job execution route is execution stage 2 → creation) Ii! +4 (in execution stage 2) → execution register 6
→It will pass on a bus connected to execution stage 2.

On the other hand, when the job is completed and a permanent file is designated by human means, all the information in the latest parameter file 5 is transferred to the permanent file group 7. This transfer is performed by writing to the permanent file group 7.

When a job is completed and the same job is to be executed again in the same manner, first, various parameters, intermediate calculation results, and final calculation results are read out from the permanent file group 7 and filed in the latest parameter file 5. Then, execution stage 2 temporarily bypasses create rM4 as the job is executed, accesses the latest parameter file 5, transfers it to execution register 6, and instructs to transfer the data to execution stage 2 as usual.

Here, if there is a parameter change, the content of the execution register 6 is changed by the create layer 4 and executed.

However, regardless of whether or not the content has changed, everything that passes through the create layer 4 of execution stage 2 is stored in the latest parameter file 5.
The latest information will always be set.

On the other hand, when executing a job, there are cases where a job end command is inadvertently issued from the keyboard input means 3, or when the command is neglected to be stored in the permanent file 7. In such a case, if you want to start the continuing job again from initial stage 1 in the same way as in the power-on sequence, either create the completely latest information using Create N4 again in execution stage 2, or create the previous data. Let them choose which one to use. At this time, as described above, all the information is stored in the latest parameter file 5 without any artificial means, so if it is selected to use the most recent data, the corresponding data can be used as is.

E. Effects of the Invention As explained above, the present invention has the latest parameter file that automatically stores all information. This has the effect of providing a radiation treatment planning device that can use the relevant information as the immediately preceding parameter database when starting a job.
