Brief description/objective

The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) code of practice for brachytherapy physics recommends performing an independent treatment time calculation. For this we implemented an easy to use isodose-based verification method for HDR (high-dose-rate) and LDR (low-dose-rate) brachytherapy plans.
