An investigation of gantry angle data accuracy for cine‐mode EPID images acquired during arc IMRT
EPID images acquired in cine mode during arc therapy have inaccurate gantry angles recorded in their image headers. In this work, methods were developed to assess the accuracy of the gantry potentiometer for linear accelerators. As well, assessments of the accuracy of other, more accessible, sources of gantry angle information (i.e., treatment log files, analysis of EPID image headers) were inv...
متن کاملDosimetric Effect Resulting From the Collimator Angle, the Isocenter Move, and the Gantry Angle Errors
Introduction: Dose distribution can be affected by diverse parameters, such as beam orientations, and collimator angles. These parameters should respect and maintain the international recommended levels during the realization of the quality assurance protocols of linear accelerators. This study aimed at evaluating the dosimetric effects on treatment quality considering...
متن کاملGantry angle determination during arc IMRT: evaluation of a simple EPID‐based technique and two commercial inclinometers
The increasing popularity of intensity-modulated arc therapy (IMAT) treatments requires specifically designed linac quality assurance (QA) programs. Gantry angle is one of the parameters that has a major effect on the outcome of IMAT treatments since dose reconstruction for patient-specific QA relies on the gantry angle; therefore, it is essential to ensure its accuracy for correct delivery of ...
متن کاملThe Personality Congruence of Iranian Veterinary Students with Their Field of Study
Introduction: Evidence shows problems like feelings of dislike for the profession, job inconsistency, and low rate of career success have increased among the Iranian vets in the recent years. We have studied the correlation between personality congruence of Iranian veterinary students with their field of study to find the cause of the mentioned problems. Methods: In this survey study, we admin...
متن کاملAn EPID‐based system for gantry‐resolved MLC quality assurance for VMAT
Multileaf collimator (MLC) positions should be precisely and independently mea-sured as a function of gantry angle as part of a comprehensive quality assurance (QA) program for volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT). It is also ideal that such a QA program has the ability to relate MLC positional accuracy to patient-specific dosimetry in order to determine the clinical significance of any dete...
