Treatment Time Calculator For Cobalt-60 Radiotherapy

Calculate treatment time for Cobalt-60 radiotherapy using machine-specific output-dose and PDD data, together with field size, treatment depth and prescribed dose.

Evaluate the RadMed Cobalt-60 Treatment Time Calculator for teletherapy treatment-time calculations using machine-specific output and percentage depth dose (PDD) data. A 15-day free trial is available for evaluation.

Before clinical use, the calculator must be commissioned and independently validated by a qualified medical physicist using locally measured dosimetric data. RadMed can support data configuration, verification and commissioning.

Using this calculator

Select the output-dose date, enter the rectangular field dimensions, treatment depth and dose per fraction, then review the calculated treatment time. The calculator accepts equivalent square field sizes from 4–25 cm and depths from 0.5–15 cm. It does not apply date interpolation, automatic decay correction, source-transit correction or accessory corrections. Use only validated data for the specific treatment machine.
