Intended Use

SciMoCa is a software product intended to provide quality assurance of a radiotherapy dose calculated by a treatment planning system by allowing a clinician to re-calculate the dose with an independent dose calculation algorithm and compare the two doses. SciMoCa is not a treatment planning system or a radiation delivery device. It is to be used only by trained radiation oncology personnel for quality assurance purposes.

Device Story

SciMoCa is standalone software for radiotherapy quality assurance; performs independent dose recalculation to verify treatment planning system (TPS) output. Operates via client-server architecture; clinicians submit calculation requests to central server. Uses Monte Carlo algorithm for independent dose verification; compares recalculated dose against TPS-generated dose. Used in clinical settings by trained radiation oncology personnel. Output allows clinicians to validate treatment plan accuracy; facilitates clinical decision-making regarding plan suitability for radiation delivery. Benefits patient by ensuring radiation dose accuracy and reducing potential for treatment planning errors.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Validation included simulated clinical workflows, environment testing, and algorithm testing. Over 700 verification test procedures executed, including functional requirements, risk mitigation verification, and regression testing.

Technological Characteristics

Standalone software; service-oriented client-server architecture. Core technology is an independent Monte Carlo dose calculation algorithm. Functionality includes dose recalculation and comparison against primary treatment planning system output. Designed for clinical quality assurance workflows.

Indications for Use

Indicated for quality assurance of radiotherapy treatment plans by trained radiation oncology personnel. Not for use as a treatment planning system or radiation delivery device.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy.
