BEAMSCAN Software Overview

Fast, Accurate Small-Field Dosimetry

BEAMSCAN is the only water phantom that identifies and automatically corrects beam inclination.

Explore this and other features that make BEAMSCAN the ideal system for fast and highly accurate small-field PDD and profile measurements, including automated beam inclination correction and small-field output factor measurements.

AI-Based Data Processing

Delivering accurate scans much faster

BEAMSCAN is the first water phantom which uses artificial intelligence (AI) to improve scan quality and, at the same time, significantly speed up profile and PDD measurements performed with Semiflex 3D and microDiamond detectors.

AI-Based “Deconvolve” Function:

Gold standard accuracy at up to 5x faster scanning speeds

Beam profiles of a 5 cm x 5 cm radiation field measured with Semiflex 3D ionization chamber at 10 mm/s scan speed before and after AI-based correction compared to a microDiamond detector measurement at 2 mm/s scan speed. The AI-based “Deconvolve” function corrects the volume effect in the penumbra region of beam profiles measured with the Semiflex 3D chamber in a one-click operation, achieving an accuracy comparable to that of microDiamond detector measurements.

AI-Based “Denoise” Function:

Accurate scans at up to 3x faster scanning speeds

Beam profile and PDD measured with microDiamond detector at 20 mm/s scan speed before and after applying AI-based noise reduction. A higher scanning speed can impact the quality of profile and PDD measurements. The AI-based “Denoise” function compensates for signal noise in microDiamond detector measurements, which can be performed up to three times faster.

TPS Validation

Efficiently validate your treatment planning system with your BEAMSCAN water phantom by comparing TPS data against actual water tank measurements.

DICOM2MCC – free and exclusive for any BEAMSCAN user

Select beam profiles and PDDs for validation and convert them into PTW MCC data format with DICOM2MCC.

DICOM2MCC is an independent software tool that converts DICOM data (RT Plan, RT Dose) from your TPS into PTW mcc format, enabling you to create a reference data set as required by your TPS. Use the versatile tools of the BEAMSCAN software to process, analyze, and compare your measured data against the TPS data. Save your validation and QA results in a PDF format for easy sharing and documentation.
