The excellent presentation given by the TROG team is posted on the “Learn” tab for the TROG Plan Study. This was presented at the TROG 2017 meeting in Auckland, New Zealand on March 6, 2017.
To supplement that presentation, below are tables summarizing the high performers for this study. The first table shows the Top 10% (overall), across all participants. The subsequent tables are organized by treatment planning system (TPS), and these tables show the Top 10% for that particular TPS *plus* any participant with a plan score of 145.2 or higher. (Note: 145.2 was the upper threshold for plan score for the ProKnow achievement system based on overall population.)
