Blue Phantom Smartscan

SMARTSCAN is the new, premium water phantom solution from IBA Dosimetry.
It represents a real evolution in beam scanning, and produces the most efficient and most precise beam commissioning and annual QA. SMARTSCAN guides your complete workflow to expedite all steps and to avoid errors. It continuously monitors your measurements to ensure the highest data quality. Automated.

Beam data quality drives patient safety!
Commissioning a linear accelerator or a new RTPS with traditional manual water phantom systems is tedious work. Intensive manual user operation is required to measure and analyze approximately 1,000 beam scans. The entire scanning workflow demands continuous user interaction with the software and hardware – which may take days, weeks, and even weekends and night shifts. This lengthy and monotonous process of taking measurements is susceptible to human error.
Commissioning is an intensive effort that requires in-depth experience. Faulty measurements need to be repeated. Sometimes the data is interpolated using fewer measurements, or beam profiles are flattened by algorithms. An enormous amount of personal effort is invested into ensuring the highest data quality possible.
SMARTSCAN drives beam data quality!

SMARTSCAN overcomes the typical challenges and constraints of using standard water phantoms for annual QA.
Instead, annual QA is converted into an easy and fast process using SMARTSCAN.

Superior quality of your annual QA data – Automated.
Sub-millimeter setup accuracy through user validation and automated software checks.
Automated scan validation checks ensure you measure the correct scans.
Instant quality checks of each scan result in highest data quality.
Automated data comparison vs. your protocol / reference data.
Depth dose scans enable annual QA accuracy (vs. 2D detector QA).

Due to its ease of use and accuracy, SMARTSCAN is the ideal solution and frequently used for annual QA!
