Abstract:
An integrated quality assurance (QA phantom) for radiotherapy is provided that includes a cubic housing having a raised topology feature and laser alignment marks on an exterior surface of the cubic housing that is adjacent and perpendicular to the anterior surface, an extendable leg disposed on a edge of the housing, where the housing rests on a treatment couch surface when the leg is in the retracted state, and the housing rests on the treatment couch in a tilted position when the leg is in the deployed state, and a rotational stage disposed within the housing that includes at least one radiofrequency beacon, where the rotational stage includes a rotation actuator that is external to the cubic housing, where the invention enables verification of radiotherapy an optical surface monitoring system, a rotational verification of the radiotherapy optical surface monitoring system, and verification of a radiofrequency beacon tracking system.
