Instrumental Quality Control of Therapeutic Linear Accelerator Performance
The objective of the article was to assess therapeutic linear accelerator performance. Material & method used were quality control tools, direct measurement & theoretical calculation methods. The analysis of results showed that: shift of machine isocenter was 1 mm then increases up to 2 mm through the gantry angles 0 to 300° and 300 to 360 respectively. The diaphragm rotation isocenter clock & ...
متن کاملSystematic and comprehensive analysis of the dose-response characteristics of a morning quality check of a linear accelerator and an important application of accelerator performance prediction
Background: This paper aimed to analyze the output constancy of a medical linear accelerator using PTW QUICKCHECKwebline and studied the sensitivity of the PTW QUICKCHECKwebline. Materials and Methods: The paper statistically analyzed the output doses of 6 MV and 10 MV of photons and 6 MeV, 9 MeV, and 12 MeV of electrons from a medical linear accelerator measured before the daily treatment to ...
متن کاملControl of instrumental performance by Pavlovian and instrumental stimuli.
Two experiments used rats to examine the transfer of control of a stimulus to a new instrumental response. That transfer was successful to the degree that the stimulus and the response shared a common outcome. The transfer was more substantial, however, when the stimulus signaled the availability of that outcome for another instrumental response compared with signaling its occurrence in a Pavlo...
متن کاملProduction and quality control of 166Ho-Chitosan for therapeutic applications
Introduction: In this research, [166Ho]Holmium chitosan complex production is described in details, followed by determination of complex radiochemical purity, stability and biodistribution (after intra-articular injection) in wild-type male rats. Finally a Ho-166 based chitosan kit for ultimate radiosynovectomy as well as radiotherapy applications was developed. Methods: 166</s...
متن کاملA survey of the practice and management of radiotherapy linear accelerator quality control in the UK
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine current radiotherapy linear accelerator quality control (QC) practice in the UK, as a comparative benchmark and indicator of development needs, and to raise awareness of QC as a key performance indicator. METHODS All UK radiotherapy centres were invited to complete an online questionnaire regarding their local QC processes, and submit th...
