Quality Assurance System For A Medical Linear Accelerator

View page
US Patent:
6626569, Sep 30, 2003
Filed:
May 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/870094
Inventors:
Lawrence E. Reinstein - Port Jefferson NY
Keith Welsh - Sound Beach NY
Assignee:
The Research Foundation of Suny - Stony Brook NY
International Classification:
G01D 1800
US Classification:
378206, 378 64, 378207, 2502521, 315505
Abstract:
An image-based quality assurance (IBQA) system is provided for performing quality assurance testing of a medical linear accelerator photon beam. The IBQA system includes an imaging phantom integrated with an automated image analysis system. The imaging phantom comprises a set of fixed and rotatable reference objects which, when radiographed, set the orientation of the phantom, determine magnification factors and measure spatial distortions. The imaging phantom includes a chamber for inserting a radiographic film to record an image of the photon beam. The sampled image is digitized and made available to the automated image analysis system for measuring quality assurance parameters from the sampled image. The measured beam quality parameters are compared with baseline parameter values to determine whether they fall within prescribed specifications. The analysis system includes an integrated database which stores the measured parameters to: establish baseline and tolerance tables for all measured image quality assurance parameters for each accelerator modality and energy; record and retrieve beam quality parameter results for trend analysis and data mining for most AAPM TG-40 beam parameters; select specific protocols for defining the image quality assurance parameters; and generate customized reports responsive to government mandated regulations.

Methods For Validating A Radiotherapy Plan By A Dosimetry Service

US Patent:
20080269568, Oct 30, 2008
Filed:
Apr 25, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/739873
Inventors:
David F. Lewis - Monroe CT, US
Lawrence E. Reinstein - Lake George NY, US
Assignee:
ISP INVESTMENTS INC. - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
A61B 5/00
US Classification:
600300
Abstract:
Described are various methods for validating a patient's radiotherapy plan. One possible method comprises receiving a dose distribution at a dosimetry service, receiving dose data at the dosimetry service from a radiation detection device at a treatment site removed from the dosimetry service, the data having been gathered in accordance with the dose distribution, and evaluating the dose data in comparison to the dose distribution to prepare a validation report.

Quality Assurance Device For A Medical Linear Accelerator

View page
US Patent:
6614036, Sep 2, 2003
Filed:
Nov 17, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/715517
Inventors:
Lawrence E. Reinstein - Port Jefferson NY
Assignee:
The Research Foundation of the State University of New York - Stony Brook NY
International Classification:
A61N 500
US Classification:
2504923
Abstract:
A quality assurance device is provided for ensuring the accuracy and reproducibility of the mechanical parameters of medical linear accelerators (Medical LINACs). The quality assurance devices is configured for placement within two parallel slots on the gantry of a Medical LINAC and includes off-the-shelf components for ensuring the accuracy and reproducibility of an optical distance indicator (ODI) distance measurement readout, collimator and gantry angles indicated by a display of the Medical LINAC, a radiation field size indicated by the Medical LINAC display, the centering of cross-hairs on the gantry with the intersection of the Medical LINAC axes, and alignment of the two lasers emanating from two positions toward the Medical LINAC with the intersection of the Medical LINAC axes.
