该任务组(TG)的费用如下:(A)为执行TG 142中建议的测试提供具体的程序指南;(B)提供完成TG 142中的测试所需的时间范围、适当人员和资格的估计;以及(C)提供每日、每周、每月或每年的质量保证(QA)表格样本。本报告中的许多指南摘自文献,并包含在参考文献中。当没有文献可用时,具体的测试方法反映了TG成员的经验(例如,门互锁的测试方法是不言而喻的,不需要文献)。在其他情况下,这项技术是如此新,以至于没有关于测试方法的文献可用。考虑到容量调节弧疗(VMAT)的广泛临床适用性,这不是TG142的一个特定主题,因此增加了几项针对VMAT的测试和标准。
The charges on this task group (TG) were as follows: (a) provide specific procedural guidelines for performing the tests recommended in TG 142; (b) provide estimate of the range of time, appropriate personnel, and qualifications necessary to complete the tests in TG 142; and (c) provide sample daily, weekly, monthly, or annual quality assurance (QA) forms. Many of the guidelines in this report are drawn from the literature and are included in the references. When literature was not available, specific test methods reflect the experiences of the TG members (e.g., a test method for door interlock is self-evident with no literature necessary). In other cases, the technology is so new that no literature for test methods was available. Given broad clinical adaptation of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), which is not a specific topic of TG 142, several tests and criteria specific to VMAT were added.
