Patient‐specific quality assurance at the Heidelberg Ion Beam Therapy Center: 10 years experience in treatment plan verification

PSQA at HIT demonstrated high dosimetric accuracy and delivery stability. Integration of IDCs and log file analysis may improve efficiency and allow to omit verification measurements in well-established cases without compromising patient safety and treatment quality, if the extensive machine QA program is maintained.

Abstract

PSQA at HIT demonstrated high dosimetric accuracy and delivery stability. Integration of IDCs and log file analysis may improve efficiency and allow to omit verification measurements in well-established cases without compromising patient safety and treatment quality, if the extensive machine QA program is maintained.
