PROGRAM SCOPE | |||
This was an unannounced, routine inspection. The licensee conducted High Dose Rate (HDR) remote afterloader | |||
brachytherapy using an authorized HDR remote afterloading brachytherapy device. The treatments included breast | |||
treatments involving Mammosite or Contura applicators, In addition, the licensee conducted vaginal treatments. As of | |||
the inspection, the licensee conducted 5 HDR treatments since January 1, 2018. An authorized user was as required. | |||
The licensee's radiation safety officer (RSO) was the licensee's authorized medical physicist. The RSO reported to the | |||
Director of Radiation Oncology (DRD), and the DRD reported to the Vice President of Operations. There were 3 | |||
radiation therapists, one of which was the DRD. There were no HDR treatments during the inspection. | |||
Performance Observations | |||
The inspector: (I) observed that the HDR device was properly secured during storage; (2) discussed Elekta's Notice | |||
Reference 806-01-BTP-OOI regarding potential Oncentra software issues, and the inspector verified that the licensee's | |||
Oncentra software was Version 4.5.3 which does not have the software issues; (3) observed the licensee's HDR | |||
emergency procedure posted at the HDR treatment area; (4) observed the RSO demonstrate how he conducted HDR spot | |||
checks and there was no concern; (5) noted that the RSO stated that none of the HDR treatments deviated from the | |||
written directive or treatment plan; (6) observed that the licensee's survey instrument was calibrated as required; (7) used | |||
an NRC-owned survey meter to conduct a side-by-side ambient exposure survey at the surface of the HDR unit | |||
containing an iridium-192 source containing 7. 7 curies, and the inspector's survey result was O.2 milliRoentgen per hour | |||
and the RSO measured the same result with the licensee's survey instrument; (8) observed that the HDR facility was as | |||
authorized; (9) noted that the facility was posted as required; (10) noted that the licensee placed emergency response | |||
equipment (i.e., wire cutters, large pig, and a remote handling tool) near the patient during treatment in the event that a | |||
problem occurs that results in high radiation dose rates; ( 11) reviewed selected HDR treatment records for vaginal and | |||
breast treatments, including overlays of anatomy and dose information, written directives, treatment plans, and pre- and | |||
post-treatment HDR computer printouts that were used to verify that the HDR unit was set to conduct the proper HDR | |||
treatment prior to treatment and ensuring that the HDR unit conducted the proper HDR treatment post treatment; and | |||
