Article Synopsis
  • An independent dosimetry audit for proton therapy delivery is recommended to ensure consistent treatments across different centers; this study outlines a methodology developed through collaboration between MedAustron and the National Physical Laboratory.
  • The auditing process involved using phantoms—one homogeneous and one anthropomorphic—dosed with ionization chambers, alanine pellets, and radiochromic films to evaluate treatment accuracy under different scenarios.
  • Results showed that measurements using alanine pellets and ionization chambers were consistent, with minimal deviations from predicted doses; the successful application of this audit method at five proton centers suggests it could be valuable for future clinical trial credentialing in proton beam therapy.

Purpose: To propose a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) quality assurance procedure that can be used for multicenter comparison of different MR scanners for quantitative diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).

Materials And Methods: Twenty-six centers (35 MR scanners with field strengths: 1T, 1.5T, and 3T) were enrolled in the study.
