Tolerance and Action Limits for Radiotherapy QA per AAPM TG-218

A dataset containing calculated tolerance limits (TL) and action limits (AL) for radiotherapy quality assurance, following the AAPM TG-218 report. The file was authored by Shinhaeng Cho and last updated on May 14, 2026. It is a small Excel file (5.5 KB) released under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Setting clinical QA thresholds based on the AAPM TG-218 universal recommendations
• Benchmarking institutional QA results against recommended tolerance and action limits
• Training ML models for automated QA flagging based on the 3%/2mm and 10% dose threshold criteria

Strengths

• Adheres to the authoritative AAPM TG-218 report for calculation methodology.
• Explicitly states the universal thresholds used: TL 95%, AL 90%, with 3%/2mm and a 10% dose threshold.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
