Abstract:
This study presents the dosimetric verification using the IQM (Integral Quality Monitor) system of a treatment plan performed for lung cancer. The IQM system is a radiotherapy verification system that uses new generation technology to ensure accurate verification of treatment plans before being delivered to the patient. Using the Monaco planning system we have produced the treatment plan used in the study for the Elekta Versa HD linear accelerator and verified in the IQM system. The quality assurance system started being developed in 2002 and the first prototype was installed in 2014.
