main systems: a mechanical system, an instrumentation system, and a safety system.
The mechanical system assures the movement mechanism of the isotope source
position beginning from the standby position until the applicators. It consists of
three main modules: a position handling module, a container module, and a channel
distribution module. The position handling module serves to move the isotope
source position. As shielding, the second module is to store the source when the
equipment is in standby position. The prototype provides 12 output channels.
The channel selection is performed by the third module. The instrumentation system
controls the movement of source position by handling motor operations. It consists
of several modules. A microcontroller module serves as a control center whose task
includes both controlling motors and communicating with computer. A motor
module serves to handle motors. 10 sensors, including their signal conditionings, are
introduced to read the environment conditions of the equipment. LEDs are used to
display these conditions. In order to facilitate the operators? duty, communication
via RS232 is provided. The brachytherapy equipment can therefore be operated by
using computer. Interface software is developed using C# language. To complete
both mechanical and instrumentation systems performance, a safety system is
developed to make sure that the safety for operator and patients from receiving
excessive radiation. An interlock system is introduced to guard against abnormal
conditions. In the worst case, a manual intervention by the operator is provided
when all other means are failing to store the isotope source into the safe container.
The tests showed good results. The prototype can send the isotope source to
applicators. The isotope source can be positioned with an accuracy of ± 0.5 mm and
with a speed of 550 mm/second. These characteristics meet the design criteria.</description><subject>KEMOTERAPI</subject><identifier>88336</identifier><recordID>88336</recordID></dc>
