Secondary Dose Check*

Fast, reliable and independent 3D dose calculation for adaptive radiotherapy workflows

Using a fully independent and innovative Collapsed Cone Convolution algorithm, ThinkQA Secondary Dose Check is designed to verify if the dose distribution calculated by a Treatment Planning System (TPS) for External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) is consistent with treatment plan parameters. It helps Radiation Therapy centers meet reporting and reimbursement needs, ensure compliance in plan quality and gain confidence in patient safety.

Compatible with linear accelerators, it has been specifically adapted to MR-Linac, supporting beam specificities and adaptive workflow.

Through its ergonomic web dashboard, the user can not only access full dose matrix analysis including automatic volume indicators, and Gamma Passing Rates, but also receive automatic report and perform approval action.

Designed for online adaptive workflows

  • DICOM import of RT structure set, RT plan, RT dose and CT image series
  • Automatic dose calculation once plan data receipt
  • Full web interface with plan verification summary and advanced graphics
  • Export session of treatment reports to OIS

Automatic 3D dose distribution comparison

  • Superimposition of full dose matrix differential DVH (TPS and ThinkQA dose values)
  • DVHs comparison and DVHs deviations (d2, d50, d90, d95, d98)
  • Four automatic volumes (High dose, High gradient, Mean dose and Low dose)
  • Gamma Index histogram for PTVs, OARs and automatic volumes
  • Gamma Passing Rate: Alerts based on 3D γ Agreement Index for PTVs and High dose volume

Fast Plan Verification

  • Fast & independent Collapsed Cone Convolution (CCC) algorithm with CPU parallelization
  • Whole dose distribution comparison results are provided within minutes
  • Automatic alerts in case plans fail to pass user-defined tolerance thresholds

User-friendly, web-based interface

  • Color-coded treatment plan verification outcome for each plan
  • Configurable approval actions (Accept, Reject and Ignore)
  • Treatment QA timeline insights per patient with primary and adaptive plans
