Abstract
A mounting device for phantoms for use in quality monitoring of a radiation therapy system is described. The mounting device is adapted such that a plurality of phantoms can be placed replicably in a defined position on the mounting device. A quality assurance procedure is performed by placing a plurality of phantoms on a mounting device, each phantom at a predefined position; positioning the mounting device in the radiation therapy system, so that one of the phantoms is located in a position intended for performing a quality monitoring procedure; and performing the procedure using one or more of the phantoms.
