Testimoniall Secondary dose checks ensure safe and accurate delivery of adaptive radiotherapy
May 28, 2025 – Physics World Article
The physics team at Almater Hospital is using Elekta ONE | QA, powered by ThinkQA Secondary Dose Check software to ensure each Elekta Unity adaptive plan is safe and accurate before it is delivered.
At Hospital Almater, all external-beam radiation treatments are performed using an Elekta Unity MR-Linac (with brachytherapy employed for gynaecological cancers). This enables the hospital to offer adaptive radiotherapy for all cases, including head-and-neck, breast, prostate, rectal and lung cancers.
To ensure efficient workflow and high-quality treatments, the team turned to the ThinkQA SDC software, because of its user-friendly interface, ease of integration into the clinical workflow and common integrated QA platform for both CT and MR-Linac systems. The software also offers the ability to perform 3D evaluation of the entire planning treatment volume (PTV) and the organs-at-risk, making the gamma evaluation more robust.
In this PhysicsWorld article, read how the software provides quality assurance for every fraction without impacting the clinical workflow.
