Ct guidance for insertion of radiation therapy fields
Intensity modulated treatment delivery, single or multiple fields/arcs,via narrow spatially and temporally modulated beams, binary, dynamic mlc, per treatment session
CT guidance for insertion of radiation therapy fields involves using a CT scan to accurately map the area of your body where radiation will be applied. This ensures the radiation targets only the necessary area, minimizing impact to healthy tissues.
This service was performed 17 times for 16 patientsIntensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a type of cancer treatment. It uses advanced technology to manipulate photon beams of radiation to conform to the shape of a tumor. IMRT allows for the radiation dose to conform more precisely to the three-dimensional shape of the tumor by modulating—or controlling—the intensity of the radiation beam. This can result in better tumor control and less harm to healthy tissue.

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation
The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.
| Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation. | |||||||||
| 1 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 8 | 7 | 1 |
| Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit. | |||||||||
| 2 | 5 | 12 | 8 | 10 | 5 | 8 | 8 | 14 | |
| Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24. | |||||||||
| 2 + 5 + 1 + 2 + 8 + 1 + 0 + 5 + 8 + 8 + 1 + 4 + 24 = 69 | |||||||||
| Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit. | |||||||||
| 70 - 69 = 1 | 1 | ||||||||
The NPI number 1568554871 is valid because the calculated check digit 1 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
