Patient Specific QA SolutionsArcCHECK
4D isotropic cylindrical detector array for rotational delivery QA and dosimetry. Designed specifically for rotational dosimetry QA, consists of 1,386 ‘SunPoint’ diodes placed in a cylindrical geometry with a spiral design, for increased detector density and eliminate shadowing.
MapCHECK2
Advanced two dimensional detector array with easy to use and comprehensive software for quick, precise and accurate QA of radiotherapy IMRT dose distributions. Consists of 1,527 ‘SunPoint’ diodes uniformly spaced in a field size of 32cm x 26cm. See below for MapCHECK 2 options: EPIDose, MotionSim, MapPhan, 3DVH, IMF.
3DVH
Uses existing QA measurements to predict the impact on patient dose and DVH, by processing data from the phantom-based geometry to eterogeneous patient dose-based geometry, using the ‘Planned Dose Perturbation’ (PDP). Additional option for ArcCHECK, MapCHECK 2, EPIDose or MapCHECK.
EPIDose
Independent method of converting MV EPID images to dose maps, for analysis in the MapCHECK software. EPIDose compares your EPID output to planned dose, not predicted images, therefore performing QA of the TPS system as well as the delivery. Additional option for MapCHECK 2 and MapCHECK.
InVivo Solutions
IVD2: diode in-vivo dosimetry system with Control Module and software for real-time patient radiation monitoring. Has 4 detector channels with option to expand. Wireless option available: rf-IVD 2.
IsoRad Detectors: cylindrical ‘SunPoint’ diode detector used for tangential beam treatments.
QED Detectors: features a flat design ‘SunPoint’ diode detector for easy patient placement and is available for measurement of electron, skin and three ranges of photon energies.
MotionSim
Sophisticated hardware and software which simulates an in-motion target to assess the dose distribution to the target, for both gated and non-gated deliveries. Treat the MapCHECK 2 array while it is on the MotionSim to see dose distributions accumulate in real time with the effects of the actual target motion. Additional option for MapCHECK 2 and MapCHECK.
MapPHAN
Water equivalent phantom holds the MapCHECK 2 at isocentre for rotational dosimetry. Additional option for MapCHECK.
RadCalc
Independent MU and point dose verification software. ‘Gold’(IMRT) package performs 3D and IMRT MU calculations, includes import utility from TPS or R&V system, MLC, VW/EDW & diode support. ‘Platinum’ package adds export utility to TPS or R&V system. ‘ROI Module’ enables import of regions of interest for accurate VMAT/arc therapy calculation. ‘Brachytherapy module’ performs LDR, HDR and Permanent Implant verification calculations.
SunPoint
‘SunPoint’ diodes accurately measure and characterize the treatment beam. Advantages include the small size, excellent stability and sensitivity, ability to perform absolute dose, long lifetime and fast setup.
Routine Linac QA Solutions
Daily QA3
Uses ion chambers and ‘SunPoint’ diodes for photon and electron dose & energy, axial & transverse symmetry, flatness, and radiation field alignment tests – all with one measurement per energy. Data collected automatically and available real-time in a trend-analysis database. Wireless option available: rf-Daily QA 3.
Checkmate2
Constancy meter using a vented ionization chamber with automatic T&P correction for simple radiation output check.
Atlas QA
Comprehensive and intuitive software solution for administering, organizing, analysing and reporting daily, weekly, monthly & annual QA data from multiple Linacs in a radiation therapy centre. Includes Test Builder feature in a spreadsheet style, with pre-populated test libraries.
DoseLab
‘TG-142’ package is comprehensive image analysis software for TG-142 QA. Includes Winston-Lutz tests using film & EPID, MV & kV imaging QA and analysis, starshot analysis, MLC strip test analysis, and film calibration. ‘Pro’ package adds fully automatic IMRT/VMAT dose comparisons for film and detector array measurements, and Gafchromic EBT2 blue channel correction.
IMF
Isocentric Mounting Fixture shown here holding the Daily QA 3 at 100cm SDD is an accessory for accurate, stable measurement setup. Holds array and up to 5cm of water equivalent slabs in a Linac accessory tray. Also fits MapCHECK2, Profiler 2, rf-Daily QA 3.
Machine QA Solutions
Profiler2
Quickly acquires precise X & Y axes beam scan information, including flatness & symmetry analysis, penumbra width, beam centre, rotational sag QA using ‘SunPoint’ diodes.
IC Profiler
Compact, faster version of a 3D water scanner. Ionisation chambers on X, Y, and diagonal profiles acquire all beam energy profiles in only one measurement, and is invaluable for Linac field installation, service and routine trending of beam characteristics.
TomoDose
2D detector array for QA of TomoTherapy Hi-Art machine. Uses ‘SunPoint’ diodes for comprehensive QA including beam centre, output, flatness, symmetry, penumbra. Includes Profiler software.
SRS Profiler
Array designed for beam QA of stereotactic radiosurgery fields. Attaches to Accuray Cyberknife birdcage and ‘SunPoint’ diodes measure output, flatness, symmetry, field size with a single beam. Includes Profiler software.
