Resumo

The SEFM task group on quality control (QC) of treatment planning systems (TPS) was created by the end of 2020 with the aim of updating existing recommendations within the scope of photon and electron beam calculations. One of the main goals that were pointed out when establishing the group purposes was to get an up-to-date map of current practices in TPS QC at the Spanish Medical Physics Departments. A national survey was designed and sent to all national centers. The percentage of centers that completed the survey reached 55%. In this report the results of the national survey are presented.
