This webinar will focus on the overview of ESAPI (Eclipse Scripting Application Program Interface), Rapid Plan and MCO at NYU Langone. The webinar will cover the general workflow of how we use scripts clinically, in conjunction with Rapid Plan and MCO, to increase the efficiency and maintain consistency for treatment planning throughout the department. This helped us create a standardized workflow that integrated with our already established clinical practice.

Learner Outcome:

1. Understand the capabilities and benefits of using ESAPI Scripting within the department
2. Understand the benefits of using Rapid Plan for clinical sites
3. Utilize Multi-Criteria Optimization to fine-tune Rapid Plans results even further
4. Combine scripting, Rapid Plan and MCO to reduce planning time and ensure planning consistency across multiple planners
