Automated Radiation Therapy Phantom Analysis in Seconds

So much is asked ofmedical physicists these days

We Can Help

QC for Therapy OBI’s and CT simulators.Radia’s Catphan/OBI module performs analysis of kV and MV Cone Beam CT images using the

Catphan or Siemens phantoms. Phantom images for Varian, Elekta and Siemans Cone Beam CTs are

measured automatically and compared to manufacture recommendations and then given both Pass/

Fail and numeric results.

Radia’s Electron Density/Tissue Characterization

Module eliminates many manual steps by automatically

evaluating the density areas in the CIRS, Gammex, or

Tomo Cheese phantoms. And, it’s no longer necessary to

move the ROI around within each density plug to identify

the best sample location. This module automatically

optimizes the position of the density sample to get the

most uniform value for the measurement, saving you lots

of time and giving you the highest accuracy.

RITtrend allows you to effectively manage all your physics QA data in one powerful and customizable package.

RITtrend allows you to tag your data with customizable fields enabling you to design,

store and recall queries producing the exact data you want to view and analyze.

RITtrend allows you to design and store multiple specification sets for your

data so you can be alerted when your data exceeds those specifications. Use

standard specification sets from TG142 or customize your own. RITtrend

allows you to define baselines for your data so you can look at your

data relative to the baseline or in absolute terms. A must for TG142

compliance! The new Multi Source Data Manager’s customizable format

allows you to add analysis data from any and all equipment used in

your Medical Physics program.

Phantom images are measured automatically and given both Pass/Fail and numeric results.

One size does not fit all. Radia is available for the individual practitioner, networked groups, and even as an

OEM component.

Page 2: medical physicists these days We Can Help · QC for Therapy OBI’s and CT simulators. Radia’s Catphan/OBI module performs analysis of kV and MV Cone Beam CT images using the Catphan

Analyze large batches and even historical data that you’ve archived in just minutes.

Radia’s RunQueueC scripting feature provides fast, easy

batch analysis that can be performed on entire directories

of images in a single operation. After a simple set-

up establishing your personal protocols, choose image

batches from one machine, a group of machines, or even

machines located throughout a hospital system. Reports are

automatically generated with pass/fails clearly indicated,

and added to the RITtrend™ database which shows you image quality measurements over time.

After your one-time setup, use it again and again. Or better yet, have someone else do it for you,

again and again.

It’s On Everyone’s Minds. Meeting TG142 Best Practice Guidelines.

Radia and RIT113 Classic performs or trends EVERY daily, weekly, monthly and annual imaging and

dosimetry test recommended in TG142. A medical physics department with the RIT package and

corresponding phantoms has everything they need. Please refer to the RIT TG142 datasheet for a

complete list.

Our DR/CR/Fluoro Module kV imaging tests are used to measure the full field performance of OBI

systems on Linacs and Cyberknife. Complete tests of Contrast, Uniformity, Noise, Modulation, kV,

and Geometric Distortion are performed over large field

areas ( 30 cm x 30 cm ). These tests ensure compliance

with the TG142 Table 6 recommendations for Planar kV

imaging.

Radia’s PTW Epid QC Module confirms the EPID image

quality by measuring Signal to Noise in multiple areas,

Geometric Accuracy, Resolution, and Contrast over

large imaging areas (26x26 cm at isocenter), exceeding

TG142 table 6 recommendations for MV imaging.

Radia gives you the same results you get from your own analysis, but a whole lot faster.

Clinical studies show that Radia analysis is equal to trained observers in every comparison, and

because it is objective, consistent and repeatable the need for review is completely eliminated. Our

incredibly fast batch analysis is an added bonus that takes it to a whole

new level. Because it’s so quick, users report that they are able to do

ALL of the image analysis that’s required for TG142 compliance! That’s

a big leap in image quality and efficiency.

Or better yet, have someone else do it for you.

A medical physics department with the RIT package and corresponding phantoms has everything they need.

A big leap in image quality and efficiency

Plan your service downtime at your departments’ convenience.

Our RITtrend™ Statistical Process Control analysis shows you how your equipment performs over

time and shows you decline in image quality before it falls below minimums. You can schedule

service at your convenience before the machine has to go down.

Delegate with Complete ConfidenceRadia lets you train a therapist to easily perform daily, weekly or any QC checks with automated

analysis and reports that keep you informed. Setup is quick and easy for you, and then with one

click by a staff member Radia automatically performs the objective analysis and generates reports

to the RITtrend™ database, other system of your choice, or output reports that can be sent to you.

Red/Green light notifications identify when image quality is within or outside of your specifications.

You can have the confidence that image quality is correctly measured no matter who executes the

testing!

Radia’s imaging scoring algorithms are adjustable. Radia’s default values are set to score from the average of a group of Physicists, but you can easily

adjust and set the sensitivity of each scoring module to match your own observations.

With one click, Radia automatically performs the objective analysis and generates reports. Radia Sequencer

The NEW Radia Sequencer allows users to populate the Radia RunQueueC work list with a

predefined set of images and analyses in just a single click. The user can define any number of

custom sequences using the sequence editor. The sequences can pull slices from absolute or

relative slice locations and even average over several slices as they are imported. Once imported a

single click will analyze the entire image set at once!
