5 Frequently Asked Questions about FILMQA I already own RT QA software. Why should I switch to FILMQA? FILMQA is easy to learn and easy to use. Most of the embedded procedures are fully automated, which helps make FILMQA the fastest RT QA software commercially available. Another reason to switch is the background correction feature available with FILMQA. This correction capability has been developed by (also the developer and manufacturer of GAFCHROMIC film technology). The built-in correction factor accurately takes into account the effects of the crystalline structure of the film with respect to the scanners. Are there other reasons itʼs faster and more efficient than the competition? Yes. FILMQA was developed by clinical medical physicists to streamline the analysis and evaluation of multiple RT QA fields. As a result, FILMQA works concurrently on all films taken for an individual treatment, not one at a time. Does it support all major radiotherapy technologies? Yes, including TomoTherapy, CyberKnife, and Accelerator/Linac. Is FILMQA expensive to purchase? No. FILMQA is an economical film dosimetry software. Do I need an expensive radiographic film scanner? No. You do not have to buy an expensive scanner. Excellent results are obtainable using a professional-level RGB flatbed scanner. Can I try FILMQA to see if I like it? Yes. You can download a 21-day full-featured trial from our website. How is FILMQA optimized for GAFCHROMIC EBT2 film? GAFCHROMIC EBT2 is a colored film with maximum absorption of its active component in the red region of the wavelength spectrum. FILMQA is designed to automatically extract data from the red channel of the color flatbed scanner. In addition, it accurately does background corrections to minimize effects of GAFCHROMIC films and spectral non-linearity of the scanner. A planned release provides automatic uniformity enhancement using the blue channel data incorporating the active layer thickness marker dye signal. You claim FILMQA software is fast can you be more specific? Yes! We have determined through repeated clinical testing that the total time for the entire IMRT QA process can be as little as 2-3 minutes. This includes importing, registration, evaluation, and generation of final chart-ready reports for 5 individual IMRT fields simultaneously! How can we share FILMQA reports with our physicians, physicists and dosimetrists at our other locations? A unique feature of FILMQA is the sharing of reports across a secure local network using any web browser. What about support? Will we be able to get help when we need it? Yes. is committed to customer satisfaction. Exceptional technical support is available via telephone, via and through both of our web sites, and Call today for more information about practical applications of FILMQA and other Gafchromic products for radiology and commissioning.
