animals (mice and rats). At KPPA, there is a proton gantry dedicated to experimental research, which will be adapted for irradiation of research animals. Additionally, the core facility has an X-ray source for reference experiments. The facility requires a system ('dose planning’ or ‘treatment plann

ing’) to plan radiation fields, calculate and map radiation doses in research animals, especially mice and rats. The system should be used to plan various types of radiation treatments in these animals. The system must be able to read CT im
