Figure 40 — Statistics Table
Dosimeter results are displayed in a tab labeled with the dosimeter
location.
The first chart is the Relative Dose Chart. This shows the
difference between each measured dose and its predicted dose as a
percentage. The value shown for each bar is the measured dose
relative to the predicted dose.
The second chart is the Absolute Dose Chart. This shows the
measured doses (in cGy) as gold bars, and the predicted doses as
blue lines. Each plan is shown as a separate blue line.
In the charts, the brown bars identify measurements where either a
port film was taken or notes were entered by the user.
For each of the charts, the mouse can be positioned over a bar to
show more information about the measurement:
• The value of the measurement
• The date of the measurement
• Who made the measurement
• The monitor units from port films that were taken
• Any notes selected during the measurement process
No bars are shown for skipped fractions or fractions where a
dosimeter value could not be read. Positioning the mouse over these
empty spaces will show if it was a skipped fraction or a
measurement error.

Using the Plan and Review Software
The Statistics Table shows summary statistics for each of the
patient’s plans. The columns are as follows:
•Plan name – The name of the plan
•Fractions planned – The number of fractions in the plan
•Fractions used – The number of dose fractions administered so
far
•Total predicted dose (cGy) – The expected dose administered
for the number of fractions displayed in the Fractions used
column
•Total measured dose (cGy) – The measured dose for the
number of fractions displayed in the Fractions used column.
For skipped fractions or fractions with measurement errors, the
predicted dose is used instead.
•Relative standard deviation (%) – The standard deviation of
the measurements divided by the average of the measurements.
For skipped fractions or fractions with measurement errors, the
predicted dose is used instead.
To print the charts for a patient, click Print. One page is printed for
each dosimeter.

Dosimeters may be tested prior to implant to assure functionality or
to verify dosimeters that have already been implanted. The
dosimeter may be tested by either entering the dosimeter’s serial
number or scanning using the Reader Wand, or by simply scanning
using the Reader Wand without entering a serial number.
Figure 50 — Test Dosimeter
If there are two or more dosimeters in the read range, then you need
to enter each dosimeter’s serial number one at a time. If you do not
enter a dosimeter’s serial number, then only one dosimeter is
allowed in the read range volume. If there is only one dosimeter in
the read range, make sure the Dosimeter to test field is blank so the
Reader searches for any dosimeter.
•To read a dosimeter without knowing its serial number,
leave the Dosimeter to test field blank (Figure 50), then hold
the dosimeter near the Reader Wand and press the button on the
Reader Wand. The Reader searches for any available
dosimeters within the read range.

•To scan for a specific dosimeter, tap the Dosimeter to test
field and a numeric keypad appears. Enter the dosimeter
number in the field and press Enter. Next, hold the dosimeter
near the Reader Wand and press the button on the Reader
Wand.
If the dosimeter is functional, a message appears indicating that the
dosimeter was found. For example:
Dosimeter 456789 was found.
If the dosimeter could not be read, an error message appears:
No Dosimeter found.
When finished testing, press Logout and the Reader returns to the
Login Screen.
6.4 Scan a Patient
To scan a patient, log in to the DVS Reader and press Scan Patient.
The scan patient screens are set up like a wizard. You can move
forward and backward through the series of screens by pressing
Next or Back.
The workflow for scanning a patient is as follows:
• Select a Patient
• Select a Plan/Fraction
• Take a PRE-Dose Reading
• Dose the Patient
• Take a POST-Dose Reading
• Enter Treatment Notes
Select a Patient
To select a patient:
1. Press Scan Patient on the Login Screen. The Select Patient
screen appears (Figure 51). Patient names appear in
alphabetical order. To find a patient, tap the up and down
arrows on the right side of the screen to move between pages of
patients.

2. Select the patient to be scanned by pressing the patient’s name
on the touch screen, then press Next.
Press Logout and the system returns to the Login Screen.
Select a Plan/Fraction
After a patient is selected and the patient data is retrieved from the
database, the Select Plan screen appears for the selected patient
(Figure 52).
Important: Always verify that the correct patient is being treated
by verifying the name at the top of the screen.

64
The Select Plan/Fraction screen displays the current plan,
treatment fraction, and previous dose measurements. If more than
one plan was set up for the patient, you can select a new plan by
tapping the Plan pull-down menu and selecting the new plan. If the
fraction needs to be changed, press the – button or the + button to
decrease or increase the fraction number. You can also tap the
Fraction field and enter the fraction number using the keypad.
Note: You cannot use a fraction that is not part of the patient’s plan,
use a fraction that has been skipped, or re-use a fraction that already
has measurements.
If the selected plan and fraction number is advanced beyond the
initial value, then the following message appears:
Are you sure you wish to add Skip Fraction(s)?
This is a reminder that one or more skipped fractions will be added
to the Dosimetry Database. These skipped fractions serve as
markers that measurements were not made for some of the planned
fractions. Press the OK button to accept the skipped fractions. Press
the Cancel button to return to the Select Plan screen and choose
another plan or fraction.
Later, the skipped fractions can be edited using the Plan and
Review Software. For information about skipped fractions in the
Plan and Review Software, see Working with Measurement
Fractions and Skipped Fractions on page 45.
When the correct plan and fraction are selected, press Next to go to
the PRE-Dose screen.
To cancel the treatment at this point, press Back and to return to the
Select Patient screen where you can press Logout.
Take a PRE-Dose Reading
The PRE-Dose screen is used to scan the patient’s dosimeters
before being treated (Figure 53). If the plan and fraction are correct,
position the Reader Wand next to the patient where the dosimeters
are implanted. Press the button on the Reader Wand to activate the
Reader Wand.

Dose the Patient
When the pre-dose operation is complete, the patient is ready for
radiotherapy. Treat the patient as usual. Within ten (10) minutes of
completing radiation therapy, scan the patient again to obtain a
post-dose reading (Optimal post-dose reading is 2.5 minutes
following irradiation).
Take a POST-Dose Reading
The POST-Dose screen is used to scan the patient’s dosimeters
after being treated (Figure 55).

9.1 Dosimeter Maintenance
Dosimeters are provided sterile. Following expiration dosimeters
should be discarded. DO NOT SEND DOSIMETERS TO A RE-
PROCESSING FACILITY FOR RE-STERILIZATION OR RE-
STERILIZE THEM USING A HOSPITAL OR LABORATORY
STERILIZER. This may result in damage to the dosimeter.
9.2 Disinfecting the Reader Wand
Disinfect or cover the surface of the Reader Wand if direct contact
with skin is required to obtain a reading or following any
occurrence of direct contact. Disinfect by wiping the contact
surface of the Reader Wand with a standard isopropyl alcohol-
based disinfectant.
