e-IMRT project  (http://eimrt.cesga.es) offers radiotherapists a set of algorithms to optimize and validate radiotherapy treatments, both CRT- and IMRT-based, hiding the complexity of the computer infrastructure needed to solve the problem using distributed computational resources including Cloud. The new platform is designed to be independent from the medical accelerator models, scalable and open. Having a web portal as client, it is designed in three layers using web services, which will allow users to access the platform directly from any front-end and client. It has three main components, namely remote characterization of linear accelerators for Monte Carlo dose-calculation techniques, remote Cloud-enabled radiotherapy treatment planning optimization and verification and data depository.
