The Radiation Fraction Pattern describes the intended scheme, i.e., how fractions are to be distributed along calendar days for the actual radiation set.
Examples of Fraction Patterns:
-
1 fraction per day (Monday to Friday), no fractions on Saturday and Sunday, 1 week-pattern:
Number of Fraction Pattern Digits Per Day (300A,0079) = 1
Repeat Fraction Cycle Length (300A,007A) = 1
Fraction Pattern (300A,007B) = 1111100
-
2 fractions per day (Monday to Friday), no fractions on Saturday and Sunday 1 week-pattern:
Number of Fraction Pattern Digits Per Day (300A,0079) = 2
Repeat Fraction Cycle Length (300A,007A) = 1
Fraction Pattern (300A,007B) = 11111111110000
-
1 fraction per day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday), no fractions on Saturday and Sunday 1 week-pattern:
Number of Fraction Pattern Digits Per Day (300A,0079) = 1
Repeat Fraction Cycle Length (300A,007A) = 1
Fraction Pattern (300A,007B) = 1010100
-
2 fractions per day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday), one fraction on Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon 1 week-pattern:
Number of Fraction Pattern Digits Per Day (300A,0079) = 2
Repeat Fraction Cycle Length (300A,007A) = 1
Fraction Pattern (300A,007B) = 11001100111001
-
1 fraction per day every other day 2 week-pattern:
Number of Fraction Pattern Digits Per Day (300A,0079) = 1
Repeat Fraction Cycle Length (300A,007A) = 2
Fraction Pattern (300A,007B) = 10101010101010
