 February 2006  Daily QA3™ Wireless Option    


The new Daily QA3 will have an available wireless option which will transmit the Daily QA3 measured data in real time for viewing on a PC. The wireless solution will be an option, and guarantees the same high level of real-time access to the full measured data as the standard wired Daily QA3. Additionally, Daily QA3 wireless systems may be used with the standard single power/data cable at any time if desired for maximum flexibility.

Sun Nuclear offered the first available wireless QA product in 2000 with the original rf-IVD™. The Daily QA3, when introduced in Summer of 2006, will be the most advanced Daily QA3 system available offering new tests and ease of use never before merged into a single product.
 

 January 2006  Corvus 6.2 Supports MapCHECK™    

Customers using the Corvus treatment planning system may now compare Corvus planned files to MapCHECK™ measurements taken at gantry angle zero. Corvus versions of 6.2 or greater allow a 3D dose grid to be exported at gantry angle zero, which can then be opened in the MapCHECK™ software.
 
 October 2005  New TomoDose™ Paper    


A significant new paper has been published on the TomoDose™ and it’s suitability for QA of the Tomotherapy Hi Art machine. "Evaluation of a diode array for QA measurements on a helical Tomotherapy unit” by MD Anderson Cancer Center Orlando appears in the November 2005 issue of Medical Physics. With a conclusion of “The ease of use and the immediate availability of the results make this device ideal for routine QA measurements.”

 October 2005  TomoDose™ Software    


The TomoDose™ is the only detector array designed specifically for the emerging field of IGRT QA. The TomoDose™ now includes user friendly PC software enabling fast acquisition and analysis of IGRT beams from Tomotherapy systems.

The TomoDose™ is available now. Please contact Sun Nuclear for additional details.
 

 September 2005  New Edge™ Detector    


The  Edge™ Detector is an all new detector suitable for in-water and out-of-water small field dosimetry. The Edge™ Detector was designed to eliminate the dose volume averaging problem associated with ion chambers for small field and high dose gradient dosimetry. Ideal applications are all types of beam scanning for field sizes smaller than 20x20 cm2. FDA 510k (k051921) approval has been received.

The Edge™ Detector is available now. Please contact Sun Nuclear for additional details.
 

 September 2005  New ISORAD™ Design    


The only commercially available cylindrical detector is the Sun Nuclear ISORAD™.
