Design, Customization, and Implementation of an Oncology Information System-Based Paperless Proton Therapy Workflow

Purpose

Proton therapy centers present distinctive workflow challenges that demand seamless coordination, documentation, and collaboration across multidisciplinary teams. Given the limited published experience with paperless workflows in proton therapy, this study describes the design, customization, and 2-year clinical implementation of a comprehensive paperless workflow at a newly commissioned multi-room proton therapy center using a commercial oncology information system (OIS).
