Equivalency of beam scan data collection using a 1D tank and automated couch movements to traditional 3D tank measurements.
In conclusion, automated couch motions and a 1D scanning tank were used to collect commissioning beam data with accuracy comparable to traditionally acquired data using a 3D scanning system. TPS beam models generated directly from 1DS measured data were clinically equivalent to a model derived from 3DS data.
