Introduction • Commonly known as Viewray

MRIdian • Integrated magnetic

resonance (MR)-guided radiation therapy (RT) instrument designed to provide simultaneous MR Imaging (MRI) and a range of external beam RT options

• Consists of three major sub-systems – MRI System – RT System – Adaptive RT System

Page 5: ViewRay System Commissioning - FL 2016... · ViewRay System Commissioning . Kyle R. Padgett, PhD, DABR . Assistant Professor . University of Miami Viewray Team: Matt Studenski, PhD

The MRI • Gapped horizontal solenoidal superconducting

magnet • 0.35 T whole body MRI, capable of volumetric and

real-time imaging • The MRI system consists of two separate magnets

abutted with a 28 cm gap. • Split gradient coil has an inner diameter of 80 cm. • Resolution as low as 0.75 mm • Planar “real-time” imaging at up to 4 frames per

second. • MR isocenter matched to RT isocenter • Body & Surface coils are thin & uniformly attenuating

Page 6: ViewRay System Commissioning - FL 2016... · ViewRay System Commissioning . Kyle R. Padgett, PhD, DABR . Assistant Professor . University of Miami Viewray Team: Matt Studenski, PhD

The MRI • Split Super Conducting Magnet

• Allows Unobstructed Beam Path • Fits in Standard Vaults, Pop-apart

design for non-destructive rigging • 0.35T Field strength provides 50cm

DSV for large FOV imaging • Less image distortion and less

patient heating • Minimal distortion of dose

distribution • 70cm bore to accommodate large

patients • Split gradient with a 28cm gap, slew

200mT/m/ms, 18mT/m peak, 30kW heat removal.

Page 7: ViewRay System Commissioning - FL 2016... · ViewRay System Commissioning . Kyle R. Padgett, PhD, DABR . Assistant Professor . University of Miami Viewray Team: Matt Studenski, PhD

Low Field MRI

• High-field causes a loss of spatial

integrity

• Magnetic susceptibility artifacts

due to the patient scales with

field strength

• High field distorts the dose

distribution

• Electron return effects get

worse with field strength

• High field heats the patient -SAR

Page 8: ViewRay System Commissioning - FL 2016... · ViewRay System Commissioning . Kyle R. Padgett, PhD, DABR . Assistant Professor . University of Miami Viewray Team: Matt Studenski, PhD

Electron Return Effect • The Magnetic Field has an effect upon the

secondary electrons • The stronger the Magnetic Field the more

pronounced the effect

MRI Sequences Available • FISP - Fast Imaging with Steady Precession • GE – Gradient Echo (Only one small FOV option) • FISP is a coherent technique that uses a fully balanced

gradient waveform (true FISP) • The image contrast is determined by T2*/T1 and mostly

depends on the TR • The speed and relative motion insensitivity of acquisition

help to make the technique reliable.

• Other MRI sequences may become available on future software releases.

with detector plane maintained at Iso (105cm SAD)

• 4.2x4.2 cm, 10.5x10.5 cm, 21.0x21.0 cm, and 27.3x27.3 cm field sizes were measured

• Same profiles were exported from the TPS and the profiler software was used to calculate the flatness and symmetry

• All profiles matched within specifications

• An A28 chamber was irradiated several times for two different lengths of time (200seconds and 1second) and the compensation time is calculated using the equation shown above

• Compensation values from the configuration file was recorded and compared to the calculated value

Timer Linearity

Exposures of 5, 15, 30 and 60 seconds were measured with an ion chamber at 1.5 cm depth in solid water. The measured exposures were fit to a line and the line fit was compared to the measured value for each time.

Gating Latency • CIRS motion phantom • Sensor is placed a known

distance inferior to the most superior extent of motion

• Beam should trigger off when motion phantom reaches the level of this optical sensor

• Latency is discrepancy between actual beam off and optical sensor triggering.

• Measured with a four channel oscilloscope.

• Viewray utilizes a Monte Carlo based treatment planning system

• The number of particle histories used in the calculation increases the accuracy, but…

• Using a high # of histories in adaptive planning can significantly increase the amount of time the patient is on the table.
