Megavoltage planning—level 1.1 Simple complexity single‑field radiation therapy simulation and dosimetry for treatment planning, without imaging for field setting, if: (a) all of the following apply in relation to the simulation: (i) the simulation is to one site; (ii) localisation is based on clinical mark‑up and image‑based simulation is not required; (iii) patient set‑up and immobilisation techniques are suitable for two‑dimensional radiation therapy treatment, with wide margins and allowance for movement; and (b) all of the following apply in relation to the dosimetry: (i) the planning process is required to deliver a prescribed dose to a point, either at depth or on the surface of the patient; (ii) based on review and assessment by a radiation oncologist, the planning process does not require the differential of dose between target, organs at risk and normal tissue dose; (iii) delineation of structures is not possible or required, and field borders will delineate the treatment volume; (iv) doses are calculated in reference to a point, either at depth or on the surface of the patient, from tables, charts or data from a treatment planning system Applicable once per course of treatment
