15 صفحه اول3D Analysis of Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy Quality Assurance Measurement using a 2D Diode Array
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) quality assurance (QA) is often performed using a 2D device and compares measured and computed fluence maps to determine if a field passes or fails certain dose and position criteria. The effects of a measured deviation to the 3D patient spatial dosimetry and dose volume histogram (DVH) are largely unknown because they cannot be analyzed using commer...
متن کاملDaily quality assurance phantom for ultrasound image guided radiation therapy
A simple phantom was designed, constructed, tested, and clinically implemented for daily quality assurance (QA) of an ultrasound-image-guided radiation therapy (US-IGRT) system, the Restitu Ultrasound system (Resonant Medical, Montreal, QC). The phantom consists of a high signal echogenic background gel surrounding a low signal hypoechoic egg-shaped target. Daily QA checks involve ultrasound im...
متن کاملAutomated Quality Assurance for Image‐Guided Radiation Therapy
The use of image-guided patient positioning requires fast and reliable Quality Assurance (QA) methods to ensure the megavoltage (MV) treatment beam coincides with the integrated kilovoltage (kV) or volumetric cone-beam CT (CBCT) imaging and guidance systems. Current QA protocol is based on visually observing deviations of certain features in acquired kV in-room treatment images such as markers,...
