A direct data link between a CT scanner and a radiation treatment planning system has been developed. The link transmits the data serially over a coaxial cable using the pseudo‐paper‐tape punch and reader (serial PIO) interfaces. The data transmission rate with error‐check is approximately 25 000 8‐bit bytes/s. This translates to about 7 s for transferring a CT scan with a 320‐pixel diameter.
