3D SCANNER Testimonial
•
In selecting a new dosimetry scanning system, our key decision criteria were positional accuracy, reproducibility, stability and a quick and easy set up procedure. We
chose Sun Nuclear's 3D SCANNER, which satisfies all 4 aspects and astoundingly has an AutoSetup™capability which allows the tank to level itself (Z) and detect the
beam center and adjust its position (X/Y) to within +/- 0.1mm, all automatically. We have found these features to be very beneficial to our dosimetry scanning results.”

ArcCHECK Testimonial
ArcCHECK is a great QA tool from Sun Nuclear that gives us the assurance that the complex plans we create are being delivered correctly by our
linacs. We have been using the ArcCHECK to check all our IMRT and VMAT plans for about a year now. We find it reliable, easy to set up and
use. Normally, we check the complete plan, delivering the individual beams at their planned gantry angles. However, the ArcCHECK has also
proved useful for investigating individual beams if any areas of concern are identified in the composite delivery. We are also looking to take our
patient QA further by using the ArcCHECK measurements in conjunction with Sun Nuclear’s 3DVH software to gain a better insight into the
impact of failing points on the patient plan.”

3DVH®
A next generation Patient Dose QA tool for 3D Dose comparison and Patient DVH analysis in the patient’s anatomy, opening a new era of
clinically relevant Patient QA.
•DVH QA
- Use existing QA results to estimate impact on patient dose and DVH
- Use ArcCHECK®, MapCHECK®, or EPIDose™
•Patient Anatomy
- Dose to phantom planar QA is converted to a heterogeneous dose to patient for DVH QA
- See the planning CT image set as the background to the dose and dose differences
•Universal Comparisons
- Plan 1 vs. Plan 2 for a given TPS
- TPS 1 Plan vs. TPS 2 Plan using any TPS
- Modality “X” vs. Modality “Y”
3DVH Testimonial
Through our use of 3DVH we have learned that conventional IMRT QA does not tell us the whole story about how our IMRT QA results effect the dose to the
patient. 3DVH allows us to determine what effect the errors in our IMRT QA results have on the dose to the patient.
For instance, we have encountered cases where conventional IMRT QA results are acceptable, but the dose to the patient is much colder then expected due to
overlapping dose errors between fields. We have also encountered cases where conventional IMRT QA results are marginally acceptable, but the dose to the
patient is better then expected due to errors canceling out.
3DVH also gives us the ability to determine how the dose to the patient changes if one or multiple fields fail a given set of criteria say 3% / 3mm while other
fields pass. We have encountered this grey area in multiple IMRT plans and 3DVH finally gives us a tool to qualitatively evaluate how these plans will effect the
patient.
In our experience, the largest benefit of 3DVH is that it has given us new insight into how our IMRT QA results really effect the dose the patient receives. This
in turn allows us to make much more informed clinical decisions from both a physicist and physician perspective on whether or not an IMRT plan should be
used to treat a patient.”

IC PROFILER™
IC PROFILER provides real time beam QA & dosimetry without a water tank on X and Y axes in addition to both diagonals. It acquires flatness,
symmetry, output, field size and penumbra data in only a few monitor units. IC PROFILER is much faster to setup and use for monthly and
annual QA than a water tank. IC PROFILER can be used for most applications where a water tank would normally be required.
•Quick and precise beam QA measurement
•Full field measurement instead of a single point
–
Identify startup/time dependent anomalies
•Sets up in minutes versus hours for a water tank
•Low signal to noise (0.15%)
•One measurement checks multiple parameters
–
Includes flatness, symmetry, field Size, beam center, penumbra width, Light: Radiation coincidence
•Advanced applications
–
Includes beam constancy, steering, diagnostics, collimator and rotational sag QA
•Accepted and proven for clinical and factory settings
IC PROFILER Testimonial
We started using the IC PROFILER for our monthly linac QA about 18 months ago. It has been an invaluable tool allowing us to quickly and
easily check flatness and symmetry at various gantry angles for both photon and electron beams. Since starting VMAT treatments, we have
also used the IC PROFILER to check the variation in symmetry over 360 degree arcs and at different dose rates, giving us confidence that our
beams are behaving as we would expect them to. The application of a dose calibration also allows us to check the consistency of the output
with gantry angle, different arcs and different dose rates. All these features help make our monthly QA process much more efficient.”
