1 DoseLab for TomoTherapy Performing TG-148 QA with DoseLab Christine Gnaster, MS, DABR DoseLab Product Manager AAPM Task Group 148 Background TG-148 could be likened to the TG-142 for TomoTherapy machines Recommendations for TomoTherapyusers to verify the accuracy of their machines Have had users inquire for TG- 148 support With the help of an active TomoTherapyuser, a Quick Guide was developed 1

2 Available TG-148 Products DoseLab RITG148 Y-jaw divergence/beam centering Y-jaw/gantry rotation plane alignment Treatment field centering MLC alignment test Gantry angle consistency Couch speed uniformity Couch translation/gantry rotation Interrupted treatment Laser localization Cheese phantom image quality Y-jaw divergence/beam centering Y-jaw/gantry rotation plane alignment Treatment field centering MLC alignment test Gantry angle consistency Couch speed uniformity Couch translation/gantry rotation Interrupted treatment Laser localization Cheese phantom image quality Is DoseLab right for my clinic? DoseLab is able to provide the metrics required for tests: Some test are multi-step Require the use of a spreadsheet for final calculation User will utilize Custom Tests for data entry Best method for testing DoseLab workflow is with Demo license User Guides are easy-to-follow Provide us with feedback we truly investigate suggested workflow optimizations via user input 2

3 DoseLab stands out We are the only easily automated linear accelerator software (with AutoQA setup) that has this capability Sites with linear accelerators AND TomoTherapy units this opens doors that are otherwise closed TG-148 tests are for annual performance Workflows for TomoTherapymachine QA will easily be recuperated with our software automation for TG-142 QA of linear accelerators Customer-driven integrations Introduction to the Quick Guide 12 page User Guide Two sections Prior to guide usage, it is recommended the user is familiar with TG-148 Imaging setup and techniques not discussed Refer to TG Report 3

4 TG-148 Quick Guide Section First 2 pages of Guide Step by step instructions for tests that are able to be quickly summarized Reference to detailed instructions for 3 tests Involve more steps and extensive explanation TG-148 Detailed QA Section Remaining 10 pages Clear, detailed instructions for each test DoseLab interface graphics for ease of use General directions on utilizing DoseLab: Reference to example spreadsheets and example tolerances as applicable 4

5 Supplemental Materials Example Spreadsheet Example Tolerance Set Or free to create own Current users should add Tolerances manually to preserve current Sets Support can assist! Example Custom Tests created in Database: Machine B Example Images In-software Demonstration V.B.1.F. MLC Alignment V.B.3.A. Gantry Angle Consistency V.B.3.C. Couch Translation/Gantry Rotation 5

6 Why DoseLab? Unparalleled product support in the industry Clinicians on staff: 4 Medical Physicist, 2 Dosimetrists Feedback drives product development At least 1 new version per year Only marketed product that can perform fully automated TG-142 QA analysis for linear accelerators (with AutoQA setup) and have the ability to perform QA for TomoTherapy units No need for self-scripting workflows are pre-built into DoseLab! Try us out! If interested, please contact your Sales Representative or Distributor: Sales@mobiusmed.com All documentation will be provided: Quick Guide Example Spreadsheets for more complex analyses Example Tolerances sets Examples of Custom Test for Machine B sample machine Mobius Medical Systems Support is ready! 6
