Article Synopsis
- Varian Medical Systems created an anthropomorphic phantom for testing techniques used in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) with their TrueBeam and Edge linear accelerators, gathering data from six clinical sites for analysis.
- The phantom includes four interchangeable target cassettes to conduct specific quality assurance functions, and end-to-end measurements were conducted to ensure accurate treatment delivery.
- Recommended criteria for successful commissioning include keeping treatment isocenter alignment within 1 mm, ensuring dose measurements align within 5% of calculated doses, and achieving over 90% in film gamma passing rates.
