WE-G-BRB-09: CyberKnife Patient Specific QA Using a 4D Cylindrical Diode Array System.
PURPOSE To examine and facilitate the feasibility of the ArcCheck cylindrical diode array system as a patient specific QA device for CyberKnife radiosurgery delivery. METHODS There is an obvious necessity for CyberKnife robotic radiosurgery patient QA procedures for hypofractionated treatment of larger planned treatment volumes (PTV), e.g. prostate. This need will increase when the future Cyb...
متن کاملReproducibility in patient‐specific IMRT QA
The purpose of this study was to determine the reproducibility of patient-specific, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) quality assurance (QA) results in a clinical setting. Six clinical patient plans were delivered to a variety of devices and analyses, including 1) radiographic film; 2) ion chamber; 3) 2D diode array delivered and analyzed in three different configurations (AP deliver...
متن کاملCharacterization of cylindrical ionization chambers for patient specific IMRT QA
Proven conventional dosimetry techniques do not provide accuracy and precision in the measurement of inverse planned intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) fields. Dynamic and step-and-shoot multileaf collimation (DMLC/SMLC) challenge current ionization chamber dosimetry practices. Ionization chamber performance in these fields is evaluated for three cylindrical chambers of varying volume...
متن کاملPixel response‐based EPID dosimetry for patient specific QA
Increasing use of high dose rate, flattening filter free (FFF), and/or small-sized field beams presents a significant challenge to the medical physics community. In this work, we develop a strategy of using a high spatial resolution and high frame rate amorphous silicon flat panel electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for dosimetric measurements of these challenging cases, as well as for conv...
