Preface iii

Preface

Intended Use

Model 1178 MapCHECK 3 is a two-dimensional (2D) radiotherapy beam dosimetry QA system

intended for the measurement of radiation dose distributions for the purpose of comparison with

a simulated dose distribution in the same phantom geometry as calculated by the treatment

planning system (TPS).

CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a qualified

radiation therapy professional, such as a medical dosimetrist, medical physicist, or

radiation oncologist for use in radiation oncology.

Description

The MapCHECK®3 device contains an array of 1,527 SunPoint®2 Diode Detectors that measure

ionizing radiation to simulate patient structure during delivery of a treatment plan dose. The SNC

Patient™ software displays the MapCHECK 3 measurement and compares the results against the

imported treatment plan.

For detailed SNC Patient software instructions, see the SNC Patient online Help or the SNC Patient

Software Reference Guide, available on the Sun Nuclear Support website (see Support Website

on page 15).

MapCHECK 3 Quick Start Procedure

Perform the following steps to begin using MapCHECK 3

1 Download software, license, manuals, and virtual CT images.

a. Log in to the Sun Nuclear Support site at www.sunnuclear.com/support (see Support

Website on page 15) and navigate to the product panel for your MapCHECK 3 (by serial

number).

b. In the Product Downloads panel, select Generate Software License and follow the on-

screen instructions to save the license file.

c. Under Download Type select Software (Current Version), and then download the

appropriate SNC Patient software version for your PC (32-bit or 64-bit).

d. Under Download Type select Documentation, and then download the SNC Patient Soft-

ware Reference Guide.

e. If you will use MapCHECK 3 to perform VMAT QA measurements during which the gantry

rotates around the phantom, download a virtual CT phantom of MapCHECK 3 in a Map-

PHAN accessory. Select Download Type > CT Data, and then select the virtual phantom

that matches the buildup of your MapPHAN (5 cm or 10 cm). Each virtual phantom

includes an RT Structure that provides density overrides for each region.

2 Right-click the downloaded software executable and select Run as Administrator. When

prompted for the location of the license file, move the license file into the default directory

displayed on-screen. The software is now ready for use.

3 Set up MapCHECK 3 and connect cables. See Setup on page 3.

4 Using SNC Patient software, perform array calibration in ‘Standard’ mode. See Array

Calibration on page 5.

5 Using SNC Patient software, perform absolute dose calibration. See Absolute Dose

Calibration on page 6.

6 Using your TPS software, plan a static 10 cm x 10 cm field (or machine-specific reference) on

the MapCHECK 3 phantom and export DICOM RT Dose and RT Plan files.

7 Set up the MapCHECK 3 to the linac using the same setup as Step 6. See PositionMapCHECK

3 for Measurement on page 9.

WARNING: Use only parts and accessories supplied by Sun Nuclear for use with

MapCHECK 3. Use of other devices may result in incorrect measurements.

Part Number Description

Note: Each image in the virtual CT phantom is 512 x 512 pixels to allow use in most

treatment planning systems.

Setup 3

8 Using SNC Patient software, click Start and then turn on the beam. When the beam turns off,

click Stop. The radiation dose distribution is displayed in Set 1. See Acquire Measurement on

page 10.

9 Right-click in the Set 2 panel, select Open DICOM Plan/Dose File Set from the right-click

menu, select the DICOM data that you exported in Step 6, and then click Open. The planned

dose appears in Set 2. See Import Planned Dose on page 11.

10 Compare the MapCHECK 3 measurement to the planned dose. See Compare Device

Measured to Planned Dose on page 12.

If device measured to planned dose comparisons do not exhibit a satisfactory level of

agreement, investigate these differences as described in Eliminating Sources of Error in the

SNC Patient Software Reference Guide or online Help.

Setup

Connect Hardware and Launch Software

1Verify that the power source matches the power requirements. The power source must be

earth grounded.

2 Connect cables as shown in Parts on page 1. Route the 25 m power and data cable from the

control room to the treatment room such that it does not present a trip hazard.

3 Right-click SNC Patient desktop icon and select Run as administrator.

• The software checks the license and verifies computer hardware requirements.

• The software finds the connected device and then initiates a background measurement.

During the background measurement, each detector is checked for leakage. If leakage

exceeds the specified threshold, the detector is automatically disabled and a warning is

displayed.

Note: The MapCHECK 3 must be used with the provided PDI 3.0, blue power and data

cable, and PDI power supply. Other PDI devices (such as PDI 2.0) and other power and

data cables (such as the gray cable) are not supported for use with MapCHECK 3.

PDI 3.0 and the blue PDI power and data cable are compatible with all Sun Nuclear

products that use a PDI device.

CAUTION: If a system hardware warning is displayed, the computer hardware should

be upgraded as soon as possible. Otherwise, multi-frame measurement files may

display ‘missed’ updates, which could affect various analyses that require real-time

data.
