1 Introduction
The Dose Verification System consists of three main components that need to be set up. These
are as follows:
• DVS Plan and Review Software
• DVS Dosimetry Database Server
• DVS Reader System
This guide contains information on the installation and configuration of these components. It will
be broken up into the following steps:
• DVS Software Installation Overview
• Network Configuration Checklist
• Installing the DVS Plan and Review Software
• Installing the DVS Dosimetry Database Server
• Installing the DVS Reader System
1.1 Warnings and Cautions
See Dosimeter Instructions for Use and Reader Operator Manual. The following section explains
the warnings, cautions and notes for DVS.
The terms Warning, Caution, and Note have specific meanings throughout this manual:
• A Warning advises against actions or situations that could result in personal injury or death.
• A Caution advises against actions or situations that could damage equipment or produce
inaccurate or invalid data.
• A Note provides useful information regarding the operation or function of the system.
Warnings
The DVS system is not intended to specify adjustments to
dose.
Dose measurement data obtained using the DVS system
should be used in conjunction with existing planning and
delivery tools to verify delivered dose rather than as a
stand alone tool for determining dose adjustments.
• Electric Shock Hazard – Do not remove the covers of the Reader or Reader Wand
assemblies. Do not open the case or touch the internal parts. The DVS Reader and Reader
Wand contain no user serviceable internal parts. Contact the local representative for
technical support and return information.
• Electric Shock Hazard – The Dose Verification System is grounded with a three-conductor
cable and three-prong plug. Insert the power cable only into a properly grounded three-
contact outlet.
• Electric Shock Hazard – Do not use in wet environment. May result in electrocution.
DVS System Installation and Setup Guide
Page 5 of 44
• Only use the manufacturer-supplied power cord, data cables, or other accessories. The use
of accessories other than those supplied by the manufacturer with or as replacement parts
for the DVS system may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the
equipment or system..
• Replace fuse only with same type and rating: 2 AMP 250V, Time-Lag Fuse, Failure to
replace the fuse with the same type and rating may pose a fire hazard.
• The DVS equipment or system should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the equipment or system should be
observed to verify normal operation.
• The DVS system is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture
with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Be sure that the cables do not pose a trip hazard.
• The Reader Wand is not for use in direct contact with the patient – especially near wounds.
Contact with gowns or other clothing is acceptable. The Reader Wand is not intended to be
sterile. Clean the Reader Wand after direct skin contact using isopropyl alcohol-based
disinfectants.
• Do not allow patients with a DVS Dosimeter to receive the following treatments: shortwave
diathermy, microwave, diathermy, or therapeutic ultrasound. These could result in serious
injury.
Cautions
• Proper use of this system depends on careful reading of all instructions and labels.
• Do not use cellular phones or hand held two-way radios in close proximity to the DVS
Reader.
• Keep CRTs at least 3 feet from the DVS Reader to prevent the DVS Reader from interfering
with the CRT image. Also, interference from CRTs may result in reduced read range.
• Turn OFF the system power before connecting or disconnecting any system components or
accessories. Connecting components with power applied may cause damage to the
connectors or connecting circuitry.
• If the dosimeter is tested prior to implantation, (1) do not remove the dosimeter from its
package as this will compromise sterility and (2) do not place the dosimeters near metal.
• Do not use a dosimeter near implanted metal objects. Read range may be compromised.
• Do not store dosimeters near stray radiation.
• Enter the predicted dose in cGy, not monitor units. Entry in monitor units will cause a false
error in the planned vs. actual dose report.
• The DVS Reader Wand should not be used within 1-2 feet of large metal objects. Using the
Reader Wand close to large metal objects has the potential to reduce the read range of the
Reader Wand.
• Do not conduct the pre-dose or post-dose reading while the patient is on a metal table. If the
treatment table is metal, conduct the pre-dose reading before the patient is placed on the
table and the post-dose reading after the patient is removed from the table. A metal table or
other metal objects will interfere with the functioning of the DVS Reader Wand.
• Take the post-dose reading within 10 minutes after the end of therapy. Readings taken
beyond 10 minutes decrease dose accuracy.

• Do not implant the dosimeter deeper than 12 cm or less than 3 cm from the surface of the
skin. Implanting deeper than 12 cm may result in the inability of the Reader to communicate
with the implanted dosimeter. Implanting at least 3 cm deep ensures adequate build-up and
minimizes potential for mechanical damage.
1.2 Notes
The dosimeter is factory calibrated and does not require calibration during use.

2 DVS Installation Overview
The DVS Software has three parts, the DVS Plan and Review Software (client), and the DVS
Dosimetry Database (server), and the DVS Reader configuration.
The DVS Dosimetry Database software can be installed on the same computer as the DVS Plan
and Review Software or it can be installed on a separate computer on a network (e.g. The DVS
Dosimetry Database Server can be installed on a computer or server in a server room or other
remote location, and the DVS Plan and Review Software can be installed on several workstations
or laptops elsewhere on the client’s network).
The DVS Plan and Review Software can be installed on multiple computers and connect to a
single database server. For administrative purposes, a version of the Plan and Review Software
should be installed on the same computer as the DVS Dosimetry Database Server.
2.1.1 System Requirements
The DVS Plan and Review and Database Server Software must be installed on machines with
the following minimum requirements.
• Windows XP, Service Pack 1 or later recommended
o The DVS Dosimetry Database Server software must be installed on Windows XP
Professional machines as it needs access to the Internet Information Server (IIS)
functionality that is not installed as part of Windows XP Home Edition.
• 5 GB (Giga-bytes) free space
o min. 200 MB (Mega-bytes) of disk space for the Plan and Review software
o min. 4 GB (Giga-bytes) disk space for the DVS Dosimetry Database Server
software
• The Windows XP Firewall should be turned off on the machine where the DVS Dosimetry
Database is installed.
The following components will be installed during installation.
• Microsoft Internet Information Services Web Server (IIS) (DVS Dosimetry Database only)
• Microsoft .NET Framework (.NET) v1.1 SP1
• Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) v2.7 or newer
• Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE) Release A (SP3a) (DVS Dosimetry
Database only)
• Microsoft SQL Server CE 2.0 Tools (CE Tools) (DVS Dosimetry Database only)
2.1.2 Data Security
Database access between the DVS Reader and the DVS Dosimetry Database occurs over a
network using Microsoft’s SQL Server CE and Remote Data Access methods. Database
accesses from the DVS Reader are sent using HTTP to the IIS Server on the Database computer
which then passes the request to the Database.
Neither of these methods is inherently encrypted, and the ability to enable SSL or other internet
encryption schemes on the DVS Reader is not supported. Therefore, it is recommended that the
DVS Dosimetry Database computer and associated DVS Readers be contained within the same
facility unless other measures can be implemented to guarantee data security.
