Permit applicants, whose therapeutic systems will be used to treat humans, must designate in their application the practitioners who will supervise treatments and certify that those designees have had substantial training and experience in the therapy techniques for which they will be authorized.

(b)Treatment plan. A treatment plan in written or electronic form must be approved by an authorized practitioner before the initial administration of therapeutic radiation.

The information in the oral directive must be documented in writing as soon as possible. A treatment plan must be prepared within 48 hours of the oral directive.

(3) Permittees shall retain records of each treatment plan for 3 years.

(c)Procedures for treatment planning and administration of therapeutic radiation. Permittees shall develop, implement and maintain written procedures to provide high confidence that:
