The Treatment Time Calculator for Cobalt-60 Radiotherapy is available with a 15-day free trial following email verification. This Treatment Time Calculator for Cobalt-60 Radiotherapy provides a structured and traceable method for estimating treatment delivery time. It calculates the equivalent square field size, interpolates the applicable output and PDD values from the supplied machine-specific tables, determines the dose rate at treatment depth, and calculates the required treatment time.
The results include both decimal minutes and a practical minutes-and-seconds display, together with the interpolation ranges used in the calculation. The tool is designed to support education, independent checking, workflow standardization, and locally validated clinical implementation.
All machine data must be independently verified and commissioned by a qualified medical physicist before clinical use. The current calculation does not automatically include source-decay correction, source-transit effects, tray or accessory factors, wedge factors, or other institution-specific corrections.
