  • IBA Dosimetry Solution used to accept the First Varian Halcyon® and Ethos™ in the United States

    IBA Dosimetry QA solutions used at The University of Pennsylvania to accept their new Varian Halcyon® and Ethos™ 1 linear accelerator. 

    "We had a very good experience using our Blue Phantom solution to validate our Varian Halcyon® and Ethos™ 1 Linac. We actually used the same equipment that Varian® used when they did their original commissioning of the treatment planning system. The setup was very straightforward, and the flexibility of the myQA Accept software was essential for aligning the detector using the image-based methods necessary for Halcyon®. The bulk of our validation work was done in 3 days.”

    Chris Kennedy Ph.D. DABR, Medical Physicist at UPENN
