Defining Thresholds for ROI

Threshold for linear and angular  movements  need to define for the  created ROI

Need to define the Maximum  misalignment Time (For Elekta  User need to consider the beam  start up time which is 1.5 Sec)

Treatment Capture for adjusting patient positionTreatment Capture for adjusting patient position

Isocenter Shift

Shift from User origin to isocenter/PTV Center can be  performed with the help of Monitor option

Shifts values can be transferred to Mosaiq Sequencer from  AlignRT.

The maximum limit to perform this isocenter shift (Update  Couch Position) is 5 cm.

The variation between DICOM and acquired surfaces need to  be same. We can achieve this by defining the ROI in a proper  way. System wont allow us to perform anything once the  variation is more than 25%.

Patient Surface Statistics between DICOM and Reference Capture

Reference Capture

It is highly recommended that after confirming the patient  position by imaging (2D/3D) reference capture need to  perform.

ROI from DICOM body structure will be transferred on the  reference captured surface automatically.

If it requires we can edit and redefined the ROI and its  threshold even in treatment window.

Monitoring Patient

Real time patient 6D delta shift can be viewed  through this monitoring option.

We can enable the Beam Hold option during patient  monitoring with appropriate thresholds which really  helps for the non cooperative and pediatric patients.

Even for Non Co planner Beams we can monitor the  patient in a very precise way (0.1mm & 0.1 Degree).
