Intended Use

The intended use of Delta4 is quality assurance of patient specific treatment delivery prior to the treatment in IMRT and 4DRT (respiratory gating and tumor tracking).

Device Story

Delta4 is a quality assurance system for radiotherapy; used by physicists/dosimetry experts in radiotherapy departments. Device consists of a phantom containing semiconductor detector arrays, a multi-channel electrometer, and software. During pre-treatment QA, the phantom is placed on the patient couch and exposed to radiation beams; detectors measure dose distribution. Software imports calculated dose maps from a Treatment Planning System (TPS) and compares them against measured dose data. For 4DRT, trigger signals flag respiratory phases, allowing phase-specific dose comparison. Output is a report comparing calculated vs. measured dose. System benefits include improved spatial resolution via semiconductor technology, elimination of high-voltage requirements, and ability to perform IMRT and 4DRT QA in a single session.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Device performance verified through compliance with IEC 601-1 (electrical safety) and IEC 601-1-2 (EMC) standards, and final unit performance testing.

Technological Characteristics

Phantom material: tissue-equivalent plastic (density/electron density similar to human tissue). Detectors: semiconductor arrays. Energy source: normal power outlet (no energy delivered to patient). Connectivity: software-based analysis of exported TPS data. Standards: IEC 601-1, IEC 601-1-2.

Indications for Use

Indicated for quality assurance of patient-specific radiation treatment delivery, including IMRT and 4DRT (respiratory gating and tumor tracking), prior to clinical treatment.

The new device consists out of: - software . - . phantom - Detector arrays. . - Multi-channel electrometer . - Connection cables . When measurements are to be performed the device is typically put on the patient table (or couch). Then the device is exposed typically from different angles. Below the device is shown schematically in a typical environment. Note that the detector arrays are barely visible, since they are mounted inside the phantom. The software and connection cables are not shown. Image /page/1/Picture/15 description: The image shows a medical device with several labeled components. The labels identify the 'Detector array', 'Electrometer', and 'Phantom' as parts of the device. The 'Accelerator gantry' and 'Patient couch' are explicitly noted as not being part of the device. The device appears to be used for medical imaging or treatment, possibly involving radiation. {2}------------------------------------------------ C ScandiDos AB Document Title: 510(k):Summary KUS2920 Document ID: D001 04 003 02 ## General Challenge 4.1 The physicist wants to verify the dose-distribution in a patient. However, in most cases it is not possible to measure the dose directly in the patient. The principal solution is to substitute the patient with a phantom similar to the human body regarding size and physical properties like density or electron-density. Inside this phantom detectors are mounted. These detectors can measure the dose distribution when exposing the phantom to a patient specific treatment scheme. ## Typical workflow in IMRT 4.2 - 1. The phantom is scanned in a CT (computer tomograph). This needs to be done only once. The CT is not part of the new device. - A plan for a specific patient is applied onto the phantom. This is done in a TPS (Treatment 2. Planning System). The TPS is not part of the new device. - The dose distribution in the phantom is calculated by the TPS. 3. - The calculated dose distribution is exported from the TPS to the new device's software. 4. - 5. The phantom - with the detector matrix mounted inside the phantom - is exposed with the patientspecific plan. The dose is measured and ready for analysis in the device's software. - The calculated and the measured dose are compared inside the device's software. 6. - 7. A report is printed. ## 4.3 Typical workflow in 4DRT The workflow is the same as for IMRT with the following exceptions: - Not only one dose plan is calculated and applied. Two or more dose plans may be calculated per . patient. For example for respiratory gating two plans may be calculated representing two phases in the respiratory cycle; during one phase the beam shall be ON, during the other OFF.. - When exposing the phantom with the patient specific plan(s) trigger signals may be used to flag . the phase (e.g. beam on or beam off in the above example). The dose distribution is saved individually for the different phases and can be compared with the calculated dose distribution planned for the respective phase. ### Scientific concept 4.4 The detectors in the detector array are semiconductors, no external voltage (as necessary for ion-chambers) is applied. When irradiating semiconductors a current is created; this current is measured in the electrometer. #### 4.5 Material used The phantom material is a plastic material that is - . similar to human tissue regarding density and electron density - non toxic (approved for food contact) . ## ਦ INTENDED USE The intended use of the product is quality assurance of patient specific treatment delivery prior to the treatment in IMRT and 4DRT (respiratory gating and tumor tracking). {3}------------------------------------------------ Document Title: 510(k):Summary Document ID: D001 04 003 02 Environment: Radiotherapy Department Typical user: Physicist or other dosimetry expert KOS2920 Contact with patient: No. Note: Only one of the predicate devices, the dynamic thorax phantom, is explicitly intended for quality assurance in 4D RT. It is an advantage that the new device not only can be used for quality assurance in IMRT but also in 4DRT. - . The customer can automatically perform quality assurance in one single session. This avoids two exposures only because the IMRT measurement instruments must be substituted with a 4DRT measurement instrument. ## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS. 6 #### 6.1 Detector(s) The new device like one of the predicate devices use semiconductors as detectors, two predicate devices use other technologies like ionization chambers, TLDs or film (among others). The advantages of semiconductors compared to ionization chambers are: - . Small volume (The smaller the detector volume the better is the spatial resolution.) - . No external high voltage The advantages of semiconductors compared to films or TLD are: - Readout with high time resolution possible . - . Readout online #### 6.2 Phantom Material The density and the electron density are all in the range of human tissue (between fat and bone). #### 6.3 Energy source The energy source is the same for all devices (normal power outlet) None of the devices delivers energy to the patient or the user. ## NON-CLINICAL TESTS 7 The technology used is the same as used as in one of the predicate devices. This technology (semiconductors) is widely used in the field of dosimetry in radiation therapy, especially when measurements are to be performed on or in a patient (in vivo dosimetry). The most important reason for the latter is that this technology is seen as inherently safe due to the absence of high voltage. This technology is well known and explicit tests in laboratories are not necessary to show equivalence. The following is done to minimize potential electrical risks: - . The new device is designed for conformance with IEC 601-1 (electrical isolation, leakage current) and IEC 601-1-2 (electromagnetic compatibility) - . Each unit is subject to final performance testing. {4}------------------------------------------------ © ScandiDos AB Document Title: 510(k):Summary Kosz920 Document ID: D001 04 003 02 # CLINICAL TESTS 8 Clinical tests are not necessary; however, the device has been tested in a clinical environment. # 9 CONCLUSION The new device is partly better, partly equivalent and in some cases identical with the predicate devices regarding safety, design and performance. {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
