Abstract
Recent developments in radiation delivery and treatment planning systems require more complicated quality assurance (QA) procedures. There are various QA test tools and specialized equipment for performing linear accelerator (Linac) and treatment delivery QA tests. However in order to have an effective QA program and ensure execution of the program, QA procedures should be simple and yet tailored so that each procedure checks as many facets as possible, while keeping the operating cost reasonable. At our center we use a 2D detector array, MapCHECK™ from SUN NUCLEAR Corporation, not only for its intended filmless IMRT QA but also for routine Linac and TomoTherapy machine QA as well as QA and commissioning of radiation treatment planning system. Using MapCHECK™ has improved our QA program feasibility and accuracy and has brought us one step closer to a paperless QA program.
