P/N 027264, Rev F 7

1. SYSTEM COMPONENTS, DESCRIPTIONS AND SITE PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS

1.1 Treatment Room (also known as the Vault or Bunker) The Treatment Room typically contains the following components:

NOTE: The CyberKnife® System numbers in bold refer to the identifiers on the Site-Specific Drawings.

Accuray Supplied Treatment Manipulator (Item 1a - floor mounted)

Description: A six-axis manipulator used for positioning and pointing the Linear Accelerator (LINAC) for patient treatment.

Site planning considerations: The manipulator is bolted to a floor frame that is embedded in the floor concrete during the pre-installation process (See Section 5.1: Pre-Installation Process). A cable pull box will need to be installed behind the floor frame, with conduits running from the pull box to the Equipment Room (details will be shown on the Site-Specific Drawings). The movement of the manipulator and LINAC within the room dictates room space requirements, including horizontal distances between finished walls and vertical distances between the finished floor and finished ceiling. See Section 3: Room Specifications for more information.

Linear Accelerator (LINAC) (Item 1b - mounted to the Treatment Manipulator)

Description: The LINAC delivers the radiation treatment to the patient and is a compact 6MV LINAC at 600 MU/min, 800 MU/min or 1000 MU/min. Please refer to your sales agreement for the correct configuration for your CyberKnife® System.

Site planning considerations: For the LINAC, there are mainly shielding considerations. Please see Section 2: Radiation Shielding Guidelines.

Interchangeable Secondary Collimators (Items 1c - typically stored in cabinets or on the optional Xchange® Robotic Collimator Changer.)

Description: Collimators are in diameters of 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5, 15.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 35.0, 40.0, 50.0, and 60.0 millimeters.

Site planning considerations: These twelve collimators, plus additional solid and pinhole collimators, weigh approximately 20 pounds each (9.07 Kg) and require adequate storage shelving or drawers. Please plan for a total weight of at least 280 pounds (127 Kg).

WARNING: Standard shelving construction may not support this weight and may create a safety hazard if it collapses. NOTE: If the Xchange® Changer has been purchased, then this storage shelving is not required.

System Components, Descriptions and Site Planning Considerations

8 P/N 027264, Rev F

Treatment Manipulator Teach Pendant (Item 1d - wall mounted)

Description: This is a hand held panel used to manually control the Treatment Manipulator. It is installed somewhere convenient on a wall near the Manipulator.

Site planning considerations: A conduit will need to be installed from the pull box behind the Treatment Manipulator through the concrete floor to the wall and then up the wall to a single gang electrical box on the wall, located at 48 inches (1.22 meters) above finished floor. A cover with at least a one inch (25 millimeters) center hole should be provided for the box. Accuray will provide and install the wall mounted bracket over the box on the wall at the time of the system installation.

In-Floor Image Detectors (Quantity=2) (Item 2 – floor mounted – at and below floor level)

Description: The detectors are used along with the X-ray Sources to correctly position the patient for treatment and to monitor patient positioning during treatment. They are installed in an Accuray-supplied fiberglass tub that sits at and below floor level, with the top of the tub covers sitting flush with the finished floor.

Site planning considerations: The fiberglass tub will be embedded in concrete during the pre-installation process. It is important for the room’s finished flooring to fit up against the edges of the tub channel pieces so that the detector covers fit closely against the flooring for a finished look. See Accuray’s Site Specific Drawings for more information on the relationships between the fiberglass tub, concrete floor, detector covers and the finished flooring. Also see Section 5.1: Pre-installation Process.

X-ray Sources (Quantity=2) (Item 3a - ceiling mounted)

Description: The oil-cooled X-ray Sources are used as part of a larger system to track patient positioning. They are attached to the cap ceiling, via unistruts, above the imaging detectors.

Site planning considerations: The unistruts and related hardware used to support the X-ray Sources will be supplied by and attached to the ceiling cap by Accuray personnel during the pre-installation process (See Section 5.1: Pre-Installation Process). For a steel ceiling cap, the customer’s contractor will need to weld adaptor plates (supplied by Accuray) to the steel ceiling. For vaults with ceiling caps 12 feet (3.66 meters) or higher Accuray will install an extension kit for the unistruts that includes side bracing. Conduits [6 inches (150 millimeters) and/or 4 inches (100 millimeters)] from each X-ray Source to the X-ray Generators will need to be installed by the customer. Details will be shown on the Site Specific Drawings. Because the Accuray system installers will need to adjust the location of the unistruts and because the X-ray Sources and/or cables may need to be changed out during the lifetime of the CyberKnife® System, it is necessary for Accuray to have access to these areas through the ceiling. While a fixed ceiling may work in some areas of the Treatment Room, we will need a drop down ceiling (or at least large access panels) around the X-ray Source unistruts. The cables going to the X-ray Sources will need to be routed down from the ceiling or from the inside of the side wall of the soffit – so appropriate 4 inch (100 millimeter) grommets or openings should be planned for.

System Components, Descriptions and Site Planning Considerations

P/N 027264, Rev F 9

X-ray Source Heat Exchangers (Quantity=2) (Item 3b - ceiling mounted)

Description: The heat exchangers are oil-based and are used to cool the X-ray Sources.

Site planning considerations: The exchangers can be positioned almost anywhere against the ceiling cap or walls above the finished ceiling line, as long as there is sufficient clearance for service and replacement. Due to cable length restrictions, they can not be placed in the Equipment Room. Accuray will place anchors and mounting plates to the ceiling cap during the pre-installation process, and then the heat exchangers will be mounted to the plates during the system installation process. The plates will act as a visual guide of where not to install any HVAC, lighting and other components that might provide an obstacle to installing the heat exchangers. Please see Section 5.1: Pre-Installation Process for more information.

X-ray Generators (Quantity=2) (Item 4 - floor mounted)

Description: These two cabinets supply high-voltage power to the X-ray Sources.

Site planning considerations: The Generators may be located in the Treatment, Equipment or Control Rooms. For service reasons, we recommend placement within the Equipment Room if adequate square footage is available and total cable length to the X-ray Sources is less than 80 feet (24.4 meters). If not, they can be placed in the Treatment or Control Rooms. They can be placed in a closet or large cabinet as long as service access and adequate cooling are planned for. Please refer to the Site-Specific Drawings for more information.

Standard Treatment Couch (Item 5 - floor mounted)

Description: The Standard Treatment Couch is used to position the patient for treatment using automatic patient positioning technology. The maximum patient load capacity of the Standard Treatment Couch is 350 pounds (159 Kg). It includes a couch top, head base plate, hand control pad, and display.

Site planning considerations: During the pre-installation process, Accuray will install a small conduit for providing cabling access from the imaging tub to the base of the table. During installation, Accuray will drill and anchor the couch to the floor.

Synchrony® Respiratory Tracking System Camera (Item 6 – ceiling mounted)

Description: The Synchrony® System is used to monitor patient motion and adjust the treatment to match the patient movement. Within the Treatment Room, it consists of a camera bar mounted to the ceiling near the foot of the table.

Site planning considerations: Accuray will install a plate and bar(s) to the concrete or steel ceiling cap during the pre-installation process. For steel ceilings, the customer’s contractor will need to weld an adaptor plate (supplied by Accuray) to the steel ceiling. Ceiling access should be allowed in this area, similar to the X-ray Sources, as the cable or hardware may need to be changed out during the lifetime of the CyberKnife® System.

System Components, Descriptions and Site Planning Considerations

10 P/N 027264, Rev F

Emergency Components

Description: There is an Emergency Power Off (EPO) switch (quantity=1) installed within the Treatment Room, located near the Treatment Room door. There are Emergency Motion Off (EMO) switches (quantity=4) installed within the Treatment Room, one near the center of each wall.

Site planning considerations: Accuray supplies the switch mechanisms, pushbuttons and labels – the customer supplies the boxes, covers, conduits, wiring and installation. All boxes are single gang electrical boxes, placed 48 inches (1.22 meters) above the finished floor. All covers should be single gang stainless steel with a 7/8 inch (22.3 millimeters) hole punched in the center. Plastic covers are not recommended as they tend to crack.

Accuray Supplied (optional) Iris™ Variable Aperture Collimator [Item 1e – stored on the Xchange® Changer (which will be included in the purchase)].

Description: Uses tungsten leaves to rapidly manipulate beam geometry. With the purchase of the IrisTM Collimator that includes the Xchange® Changer, the customer will receive a full set of fixed collimators in diameters of 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5, 15.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 35.0, 40.0, 50.0 and 60.0 millimeters.

Site planning considerations: See considerations for the Xchange Changer.

RoboCouch® Patient Positioning System (Item 7a - floor mounted)

Description: The RoboCouch® System (optional to the Standard Treatment Couch) sits diagonally from the Treatment Manipulator, and includes a column cover supplied by Accuray (See Section 3.1.1.1: Physical Requirements). The maximum patient load capacity of the RoboCouch System is 500 pounds (227 Kg). It comes standard with a flat top, but may be ordered with the optional Seated Load patient support system.

Site planning considerations: The column cover comes in the color Glacier White. The column cover is either the capped model (at 80 inches from the floor), which is the default selection, or the extended model that goes all the way to the finished ceiling. If the cables coming to the RoboCouch System are brought in through the floor (typical), then the capped model is used. If the cables need to come down from the ceiling (typically only for some upgrades), then the extended model is used. The RoboCouch System bolts to a floor frame that is embedded in concrete during the pre-installation process. Accuray will typically install the RoboCouch System floor frame at all customer sites, even if the customer did not purchase this option. This will make installation easier should the customer decide to purchase the RoboCouch System upgrade at a later date. A pull box with a conduit running to the Equipment Room will need to be installed, along with a small conduit to the wall for the control module. Details will be shown on the Site-Specific Drawings.

RoboCouch® System Control Module (Item 7b - wall mounted)

Description: The RoboCouch® System has a control module that contains a control wand and other electronics. It is located on a wall within easy reach of the operator of the RoboCouch System during patient loading and set-up.

System Components, Descriptions and Site Planning Considerations

P/N 027264, Rev F 11

Site planning considerations: A small conduit [1 ½ inches (38 millimeters)] and a single gang electrical box will need to be installed near the RoboCouch System for the control module. They will be shown on the Site-Specific Drawings.

Xchange® Robotic Collimator Changer (Item 8 - floor mounted)

Description: The Xchange® Changer sits near the Treatment Manipulator. It holds the interchangeable secondary collimators (plus the Iris™ Collimator, if applicable) allowing the manipulator to change collimators on its own.

Site planning considerations: A small conduit [2 inches (50 millimeters)] and electrical box [8 inch square (200 millimeters)] will need to be installed in the concrete floor for the Xchange Changer. These will be shown on the Site-Specific Drawings. Accuray will typically ask that the conduit and electrical box be installed at all customer sites, even if the customer did not purchase the Xchange Changer option. This will make installation of it easier should the customer decide to purchase the upgrade at a later date.

NOTE: Due to light sensitivity, lights should not be placed in the ceiling directly above the Xchange Changer as shown on the Accuray Site-Specific Drawings.

Accuray Item Specifications Listed below are the typical specifications for the items listed above. Please keep in mind that some of these items, like the Treatment Manipulator and RoboCouch® System, are not square in nature, and move in space, so are not easy to define. We have attempted to define their specifications either in their shipping position or at rest in their home position.

Customer Supplied (optional – unless required by local regulations) Nurse Call Button(s)

Medical Gas Lines

Customers have the choice of installing medical gas and vacuum outlets directly in the Treatment Room, or using mobile gas carts instead. Anesthesia may be required for some patients – especially children. Please consult with the site administrator and/or physicians to determine their exact needs for medical gasses. Typical installations may include any of the following lines:

• Oxygen • Air • Nitrous Oxide • Vacuum • Waste Anesthetic Gas Disposal

Remote patient monitoring

This is typically used for monitoring anesthetized or other critical patients and can be accomplished via several methods:

• The mobile monitoring system can be kept in the Treatment Room, with one of the pan/zoom cameras focused on the screen for viewing in the operator’s area.

• The remote monitoring cables can be run through the physics port that exists between the Treatment Room and the Control Room.

• A separate conduit can be designed and built into the wall for the purpose of patient monitoring. • The customer can have a system built into the Treatment Room.

1.2 Control Room The Control Room can be configured in many ways, depending upon the site layout and desire of the customer. Typically, it includes the following equipment:

2. RADIATION SHIELDING GUIDELINES

Initial Site Planning Primary barrier thicknesses will likely be between 48 and 60 inches (1219 to 1524 millimeters) of standard density concrete (2.4 g/cm3 nominal density), depending upon workload, limits, occupancy factors and local regulations. In general, all walls are considered primary barriers with a 5% use factor.

For initial site planning, we recommend using 60 inches (1524 millimeters) on all primary barriers with adjacent public areas. We recommend using 42 inches (1067 millimeters) on all secondary barriers, including the ceiling. In the Gantry LINAC Vault layout, the CyberKnife® System can be configured to limit the treatment beams to only the primary barriers designed for the LINAC. In such an installation, the rest of the walls are considered as secondary barriers and will likely require about 42 inches (1067 millimeters) of shielding.

For specific shielding guidelines, please see the section below.

NOTE: The customer is ultimately responsible for determining the proper shielding for the Treatment Room.

Radiation Shielding for the CyberKnife® Robotic Radiosurgery System

System Description The CyberKnife System utilizes a compact X-band linear accelerator mounted on a robotic manipulator. The CyberKnife System delivers dose from paths which are composed of a series of nodes. The CyberKnife System can deliver radiation from twelve different positions per node. Figure 1 shows the possible node positions for a three path treatment. Single path treatments are also available. When planning a CyberKnife treatment, the specific nodes and positions at those nodes are determined. During treatment delivery, the manipulator will move the accelerator from node to node in series while dose is delivered at only those nodes selected during the treatment planning process.

Radiation Shielding Guidelines

P/N 027264, Rev F 19

Figure 1: Possible Node Configurations

The two objects shown above the Treatment Manipulator and linear accelerator are diagnostic X-ray sources. Images from these sources are used to determine patient position prior to and during patient treatment. During treatment delivery, the system acquires images at treatment nodes which are used to determine patient position. This information is fed to the manipulator system and any necessary corrections are made prior to delivery.

CyberKnife® Specifications

Table 3: CyberKnife Specifications

Beam Energy 6 MV

Output Rate 400 monitor units (MU) to 1000 MU per minute (at 80 centimeters)(Output depends upon configuration purchased)

Reference Calibration Condition 1 MU is nominally equal to 1 cGy at 800 millimeters SAD, using a 60 millimeter diameter secondary collimator and at 15 millimeter depth in water

Field Sizes 12 collimators available producing circular fields from 5 millimeters to 60 millimeters at 800 millimeter SAD

 

Radiation Shielding Guidelines

20 P/N 027264, Rev F

Permissible Exposure Limits – Integrated versus Instantaneous Dose Rate Limits Typically, integrated dose rate limits are used for radiation therapy facility barrier design: 20 microSv per week for uncontrolled areas and 100 microSv per week for controlled areas. Due to the low use factor of the CyberKnife® System, barriers design for integrated dose limits may have areas with high instantaneous dose rates. Consideration should be given to incorporating a 2 mrem dose “in any hour” limit for public areas such as has been adopted in several American States.

Nominal Treatment Distance The CyberKnife System is not an isocentric treatment device. However, a room (imaging center) is identified, which is where the beams of the two diagnostic imaging sources intersect. The treatment volume is rarely at the room isocenter but is usually within 10 centimeters of the room isocenter. The nominal treatment distance for brain treatments is 800 millimeters. There is also a head path available with a 650 millimeter treatment distance. This path is typically reserved for trigeminal neuralgia treatments. Treatment distance for spine and body cases vary from 900 – 1100 millimeters.

Workload Estimation The following are recommendations for estimating the workload of a CyberKnife System for shielding purposes. Recommended treatment times are based on clinical experience by expert users: 45 minutes for brain treatments and 1 hour for spine and body treatments. These are to be considered minimum treatment times, rather than average times. Note the treatment distance is 800 millimeters for skull paths and 900 – 1000 millimeters for spine/body paths. For shielding purposes, the doses should be scaled to 1 meter. These doses assume a TPR of 0.7.

Table 4: Workload Estimations

Brain 45 minutes 7.45 Gy @ 80 cm SAD

Spine / Body 60 minutes 11 Gy @ 100 cm SAD

Example

Estimate the weekly workload at the nominal treatment distance (80 centimeters) for a facility that intends to treat 4 brain cases and 4 spine/body cases per day, 5 days per week:

4 brain treatments / day * 7.46 Gy / fraction * (0.8 m / 1.0 m) ^2 *5 days / week = 95.5 Gy / week

4 body treatments / day * 11.02 Gy / fraction * 5 days / week = 220 Gy / week Total workload at 100 centimeters = 315.5 Gy / week

Use & Modulation Factors The CyberKnife® System can direct primary beams at all walls and at the floor. Accuray recommends a use factor of 5% for the walls. The beam can be directed upward at a maximum angle of 22° above the horizon. For most facilities this means that the ceiling is a secondary barrier. In the Gantry LINAC configuration, the CyberKnife System can be configured to limit the treatment beams to only the primary

Radiation Shielding Guidelines

P/N 027264, Rev F 21

barriers that were designed for the previous LINAC installation. In such an installation, for shielding calculations, the rest of the walls can be treated as secondary barriers.

Accuray recommends a modulation factor (MU per cGy) of 15 for head and spine/body paths. Figure 2 on the next page shows the target location and the position of the back of the waveguide for a CyberKnife device.

Figure 2: LINAC Dimensions

Key to Figure 2

A = Robot Joint 6 Axis B = Gun Plane C= Target Point

TVL Values Rogers, et al. have used Monte Carlo techniques to estimate TVLs (primary beam) for use with the CyberKnife® System. Accuray recommends using the equilibrium values (TVLe) from the table below.

Radiation Shielding Guidelines

22 P/N 027264, Rev F

Table 5: TVL Values

TVL data for ordinary concrete and lead. 1Ordinary concrete composition NBS04 as given by Rodgers.4

TVL1 (cm) 29.4 31.2 4.8 5.1

TVLe (cm) 31.9 32.4 5.05 5.25

Leakage Rates The CyberKnife System LINAC is shielded to limit the leakage around the LINAC to an average of about 0.03% of the primary beam. Maximum value of leakage rate at distance of 1 meter from the electron beam path is limited to 0.1% of the primary beam dose rate at 80 cm from the x-ray target as measured as an average over an area no greater than 10 cm x 10 cm. Both leakage and TVL values are smaller around the back of the LINAC. Leakage TVLe around the rest of the LINAC is 29.2 +/- 0.4 cm of concrete. Typically only 50% of the leakage dose value is comprised of radiation that is of sufficient energy to penetrate more than one TVL of concrete. See Accuray Shielding White Paper P/N 500627.A for details on the use of “high energy leakage” value for shielding calculations.

Groundshine Radiation Groundshine radiation may be a problem under any direct shielded doors or secondary shielded walls. Please refer to Page 82 of the NCRP report 151 mentioned below for more information.

P/N 027264, Rev F 27

NOTE: Using the absolute minimum dimension could possibly limit the number of available system upgrades in the future. Currently, all available products are compatible with this room dimension with the exception of the RoboCouch Patient Positioning System.

NOTE: The CyberKnife System equipment within the Treatment Room does not take up the entire square footage of the 18 feet by 19 feet (5.5 meters by 5.8 meters) or 16 feet by 19 feet (4.88 meters by 5.8 meters), but does use the majority of space within this area depending upon the configuration of the system. The Accuray customer Site-Specific Floor Plan drawing will show the customer where it is safe to install sinks, cabinets and other pieces of customer supplied equipment within the room.

NOTE: The center of the Treatment Manipulator must be at least 66 inches (1676 millimeters) away from any wall, column or other obstruction, in order to allow the manipulator to freely move during system operation.

NOTE: The room dimensions mentioned above only include the floor space of the actual Treatment Room and do not include any floor space dedicated to a maze walkway or the swing path of a direct-shielding door.

Ceiling Cap Height Recommended

11 feet (C) or greater (3.35 meters or greater) height between finished floor and rough ceiling cap (whether concrete or steel). This will allow for plenty of room for HVAC, lighting, etc. to be located between the finished ceiling and the ceiling cap.

Minimum

10 feet (C) (3.05 meters) between floor and rough ceiling cap.

Absolute Minimum

9 feet 2 inches (C) (2.8 meters) between floor and rough ceiling cap.

Fixed Rule about Ceiling Height if optional RoboCouch System has been purchased

There are two options on the type of cover that the customer can choose to shroud the RoboCouch System column (see figure below).

• If the capped free-standing cover has been chosen, the column is capped at 80.5 inches (2.05 meters) tall, so the fixed ceiling height for the room must only follow the general guidelines as noted above.

• If the extended free-standing cover has been chosen, the column can be adjusted up to the fixed ceiling of any height between 9 feet and 11 feet (between 2.743 meters and 3.353 meters), with the hard concrete ceiling as high as 12 feet 10 inches (3.912 meters).

Figure 5: RoboCouch® System Column Cover Types: Capped (shown on left) and Extended (shown on right)

NOTE: The capped free-standing cover is the default cover for the RoboCouch System. Typically the extended free-standing cover is only used in situations where the electrical cables must be routed through the ceiling. The column covers come in a Glacier White color.

Room Specifications

P/N 027264, Rev F 29

Minimum Door Clearance For rigging in equipment from the shipping truck to inside the Treatment Room, door clearances for the rig path need to be:

Recommended

48 inches wide by 84 inches tall (1219 by 2134 millimeters).

Minimum

43 inches wide by 84 inches tall (1092 by 2134 millimeters).

NOTE: There are some floor space clearances required for rigging in the Treatment Manipulator and RoboCouch® System (if purchased). Accuray can help to assess suitability of rigging path.

Recommended Equipment Orientations within the Treatment Room Because of the flexibility of orienting the CyberKnife® System within a vault, Accuray will help to determine the best orientation for your site based on:

• Ease of patient loading • Exact system configuration • System clearances • Shielding considerations • Ease of access to sinks and cabinets • Customer preferences

Please contact your Site Planner or Designer if you have any questions during the design process.

3.2 Control Room Minimum Floor Space 100 square feet (9.3 square meters), with enough counter space for at least 2 people and 3 to 4 workstations. This room should be large enough to easily accommodate four to five people during any training and Go-Live activities.

Recommended Location The Control Room should be located within eyesight of the Treatment Room door, and should be shielded from public view as much as possible.

Minimum Door Clearance For moving workstations into the Control Room, any typical door clearance is acceptable.

NOTE: If the Equipment Room is located off of the Control Room, any doors into the Control Room must meet the same minimum door clearance as the Equipment Room.

Room Specifications

30 P/N 027264, Rev F

3.3 Equipment Room Recommended Floor Space 160 square feet (15 square meters) if the X-ray Generators are located in the Equipment Room.

145 square feet (13.5 square meters) if the X-ray Generators are located outside of the Equipment Room.

Minimum Floor Space 145 square feet (13.5 square meters) if the X-ray Generators are located in the Equipment Room.

130 square feet (12 square meters) if the X-ray Generators are located outside of the Equipment Room.

NOTE: No side of the Equipment Room should be less than 7 feet (2.1 meters) long, in order to provide adequate installation and service access to the equipment. This rule changes to 10 feet (3.05 meters) for Equipment Rooms with the Minimum Floor Space.

Fixed Rule about Floor Space Additional floor space must be built into the Equipment Room for any customer-supplied equipment such as transformers, power conditioners (voltage stabilizers), floor mounted air conditioning units, data and server equipment, phone equipment, storage cabinets, etc. Service access and regulatory requirements must be considered when planning for adequate space around each piece of Accuray or customer-supplied equipment.

Recommended Location Due to limited cable lengths between most equipment, the Equipment Room should be located adjacent to the Treatment Room, and as close to the Treatment Manipulator as possible.

NOTE: As a rule of thumb, the maximum cable length run from the Treatment Manipulator pull box to the Equipment Room pull box should be no more than 30 feet (9.1 meters).

Fixed Rule about Location System operators must be able to access the Equipment Room during patient treatment. The equipment in the Equipment Room (with the exception of the X-ray Generators) can not be located in the Treatment Room, nor can they be located in a room that is entered into by going through the Treatment Room, nor can they be located on a different floor from the Control Room.

Minimum Finished Ceiling Clearance 7 feet (2.135 meters) between finished floor and finished ceiling.

Minimum Door Clearance 3 feet wide by 7 feet high (.914 by 2.134 meters) for rigging the equipment into the Equipment Room, door clearances for the rig path need to be a standard.

NOTE: The Equipment Room door(s) must be lockable, so that the room can not be accessed during treatment by anyone other than the operators.

P/N 027264, Rev F 31

3.4 Treatment Planning Room(s) Workspace Enough workspace for two or more workstations and a desktop color laser printer. Accuray will attempt to show the exact number of purchased workstations on the customer Site-Specific Drawings. Otherwise, we will show a generic setup. Please contact your Accuray Site Planner for additional information.

Recommended Location The Treatment Planning Room should be located within 328 feet (100 meters) network cable run length to the Equipment Room. This will facilitate better I.T. connection speeds, as it will allow direct connection between the workstations located in this room and the CyberKnife® System internal network.

Locating the Treatment Planning Room at a further location will require connecting the workstations and printer to the facility network and may significantly slow down the transfer speed of treatment plans. Please see the I.T. section of this document, or Accuray’s IT Guide (Part Number 025168) for more information.

4.1 Electrical Power Requirements It is recommended to supply 480 VAC, 3-phase, 100 Amps, 55 kVA power to the Main Power Disconnect. However, the CyberKnife® System Power Distribution Unit (PDU) will accept input power in the range of 200 VAC through 480 VAC. For any input voltages at 240 VAC and below, 150 Amps is required.

The Main Power Disconnect typically needs a 36 inch square (914 millimeter square) exclusionary area directly in front of it for regulatory requirements. We recommend that it be located next to the door of the Equipment Room, with the Junction Box located between the Main Power Disconnect and the door. The customer is responsible for the Disconnect box, fuses and all conduits and wiring from the original power source to the box. Accuray will supply and run the power cable from the Disconnect Box to the CyberKnife System PDU. The CyberKnife System does not use a neutral leg. A grounding lug is to be supplied by the electrical contractor with the following specifications: A 4 gauge lug terminating to grounded building steel or earth within the main power disconnect.

The Main Disconnect can be located on an outside wall of the Equipment Room, as long as it remains within the cable limitations of the PDU. Accuray can help to locate the best position.

Power Conditioner (Voltage Stabilizer) A power conditioner will be required of the customer if the input voltage can not be regulated to within +/- 5% phase to phase. Please see Section 5.6: Power Conditioners for more information.

Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) A UPS is provided to power the Treatment Delivery, Data Server, LCD monitor and networking devices in the event of a power failure to reduce risk of lost or damage to data.

A UPS is not provided for other workstations such as the Multiplan®

MD suites, Administrative Workstation, and etc. Although not required, it is recommended and customer may at its discretion and expense provide additional UPS to protect these devices.

P/N 027264, Rev F 37

NOTE: We recommend planning for the maximum capacity of the room (34,800 BTU/h or 10.2 Kilowatts) in case the additional options are installed at a later date. Most of our customers install a minimum 3 ton air conditioner to achieve the cooling needs of this room.

Cooling requirements for the Equipment Room are between 30,000 and 35,000 BTU/h (8.8 to 10.26 Kilowatts), depending upon whether the X-ray Generators are located in the room and if the RoboCouch System has been purchased (which requires an additional controller). We recommend all sites plan for the RoboCouch System, as the customer may upgrade to it at a later date. Typically, our customers install a minimum three ton air conditioning unit for this room. Please see Section 4: Electrical and Environmental Requirement for more information.

Treatment Planning Room(s) There are no special requirements with regard to the CyberKnife® System for the Treatment Planning Rooms.

System Storage (Non-operating condition) Guidelines If the CyberKnife System must be stored for any length of time in a crated or uncrated condition, please follow these guidelines:

• Store in an environmentally protected indoor area free from dust and any potential water damage • Make sure the area is temperature controlled between 40° F and 90° F (5° C and 32° C) • Assure the area is humidity controlled to less then 80%, non-condensing • Assure the area is locked to prevent against vandalism

NOTE: Approximately 400 square feet (37.2 square meters) is needed for storing a crated CyberKnife®

System.

5. OTHER SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION CONSIDERATIONS

5.1 Pre-Installation Process Contents of Shipping Crates The pre-install kit crates contain the fiberglass imaging tub, the Treatment Manipulator floor frame, the RoboCouch® System floor frame (although in rare circumstances, it may not be installed), the X-ray Source ceiling mount kits, Synchrony® System ceiling mount kit, emergency off and key switches, a dolly and other related hardware.

For any rigging or storage purposes, the crate measurements are typically:

Table 10: Pre-Install Crate Measurements and Weights

CRATE CONTENTS LENGTH WIDTH HEIGTH WEIGHT

Large Fiberglass Tub 127 inches 3226 mm

44 inches 1118 mm

22 inches 559 mm

655 lbs 297 kgs

Small RoboCouch Frame 36 inches 29 inches 17 inches 250 lbs

914 mm 737 mm 432 mm 114 kgs

Shipping and Rigging The pre-install kit crates are normally shipped to the site when the floor pit is ready – typically at least four to five weeks before construction is completed and the CyberKnife®

System is delivered. Accuray will schedule and pay for the shipment of the three crates to the customer location. We ask that the customer or their contractor receive the shipment and store it in a safe area until Accuray personnel arrive to unpack the crates and move the material into the CyberKnife System suite area. If stacking the crates, please place the medium and small crates on the ground, and stack the large crate on top.

Site Preparation The pre-install kit should be installed in the window of time between the completion of construction on the raw concrete vault (or demolition if renovating a vault) and the point just before finished walls and ceiling, and any ceiling work (HVAC, sprinklers, lighting, etc.) begin to be added.

Accuray will need access to the ceiling cap (concrete or steel) for anchoring (or welding for steel ceilings) our X-ray Source unistruts and plates, and Synchrony® plate and pole (please see Site-Specific Pre-Installation plan for locations) We will also need the floor pit completed and cleaned out of any trash

Other System Implementation Considerations

P/N 027264, Rev F 39

and/or water. The rest of the inside of the vault should be as empty of material as possible to allow free movement of ladders, tools and equipment by Accuray. The conduits and pull boxes for the Treatment Manipulator and RoboCouch® frames will need to have been installed.

Tools and labor that Accuray will need the contractor to supply are:

• Ladder of sufficient height to do ceiling work (power lift for ceilings over twelve feet) • Electricity for hand tools (typically 120VAC in the US, or equivalent internationally) • Wet/Dry vacuum • Portable lighting for safe work • Hard hats, vests and safety glasses if required • Basic cooling/heating as necessary if temperatures are extreme • Dust ventilation, as required • Additional labor (1 to 2 people) for a few minutes to help lift and install the floor frames onto the

anchors

Accuray Pre-Installation Process During this process, Accuray (or an approved contractor) will complete the following:

• Locate Isocenter within the room and verify measurements to all walls

• Lay templates on the bottom of the floor pit to mark locations of anchors for both floor frames and the ceiling installation work (plates and unistruts)

• For ceiling work, Accuray will drill and place four Hilti concrete anchors for each plate, install the plates/unistruts and secure to the anchors. The unistruts will be cut to the proper length to support the X-ray Sources (to be installed during system installation).

• Accuray will drill and place anchors in the bottom of the floor pit for both floor frames. Accuray will install the frames (with additional labor help as needed) onto the anchors and then level and secure the frames to the anchors. The Treatment Manipulator frame weights 350 pounds (159 kilograms) and the RoboCouch® frame weights 192 pounds (87 kilograms).

• Accuray will then install the fiberglass tub inside the pit, leveling and anchoring it to the concrete floor. A conduit connector will be installed between the Treatment Manipulator floor frame and the tub and secured with duct tape.

• All bolt holes in the frames and any connections between pieces will be secured with duct tape to prevent any concrete paste from seeping through.

• All pads on the frames will be marked to indicate where their level should end up in relation to the poured concrete floor. Some will be marked ¼” (6 to 7 millimeters) above finished floor (assuming standard vinyl flooring – if non-standard flooring, such as ceramic tiles are installed then this number will change) and others marked flush with finished floor. When poured, the top of the finished concrete floor should be flush with the outer lip of the fiberglass tub (please see Accuray Site-Specific Drawings for more information).

 

Other System Implementation Considerations

40 P/N 027264, Rev F

Customer / Contractor Follow-up Work The contractor will be responsible for the following:

• Securing a connection between the rectangle conduit coming out of the back of the Treatment Manipulator floor frame and the contractor’s pull box. The wall of the box around the conduit should be securely sealed so that concrete from the pit doesn’t flow into the pull box.

• Pouring concrete into the pit as soon as possible to reduce the chance of the frames or fiberglass tub from accidentally being altered from their correct position.

• Pouring concrete as easily as possible around the fiberglass tub to avoid any warping or movement of the tub walls or top rim. Make sure that the concrete/grout flows completely under the tub – a vibrator may need to be used.

The electrician will be responsible for the following:

• Installing the EPO, EMO, Door Override Key Switch and X-Ray On light relay (if needed). For the EPO, EMO and Door Override Key Switch, Accuray supplies the push buttons, switches and labels. The electrician supplies the single gang boxes, covers, conduits, wiring and installation.

Additional Site Work by Accuray After the pre-installation work is completed, Accuray will:

• Inspect and measure all cable conduits to make sure lengths are per the drawings • Inspect the Equipment Room to make sure that all Power Distribution Boxes, pull boxes and other

customer supplied equipment (HVAC, Power Conditioners, etc.) are in the locations per the plans • Walk the rig route that the CyberKnife® System will take to measure clearances and assure

adequate staging area at the location the equipment will be taken off of the shipping truck. • Be available to answer any questions.

Shipping and Rigging The CyberKnife System is normally shipped to arrive at the site around 7:00AM on the first day of the scheduled installation, typically a Tuesday. However, other days of the week and times can be scheduled according to what works best for the customer and Accuray.

Unless the contract calls for another arrangement, Accuray will schedule and pay for the shipment of the system crates to the customer location.

Other System Implementation Considerations

42 P/N 027264, Rev F

The customer contract will determine whether the customer or Accuray is responsible for scheduling and paying for the rigging of the system from the shipping truck into the customer facility. The Accuray site planner can answer any questions the customer has on rigging responsibility.

If Accuray is responsible for the rigging, we will typically use our shipping company as the rigger for the job. Accuray will be responsible for the first $8,000 of the rigging costs, which represents a typical rig job. The customer will be responsible for the remainder of the cost (this typically occurs if a crane or other special equipment is required). If the customer is responsible for the rigging, our shipping company is available to do the rigging for a fee. We do recommend this option, as they are the most familiar with our equipment and the rigging needs of transporting the equipment into your facility. Your Accuray Site Planner can help to get you in touch with the right contact person at our shipping company.

If you would like to arrange to have the rigging done by a local company, listed below is the manpower and equipment that will be needed for the rig-in:

Rig-in Manpower and Equipment Needed Manpower

• One experienced rigger, two additional movers. • Our installers will be present to help answer questions and assist with some work.

Equipment

• An 8,000 pound (3600 Kg) forklift with 8 foot (2.4 meter) fork blades • One electric two-ton pallet jack • One hand-operated genie lift (>300 lbs capacity)(136 kg) • One J-bar • Eight (8) four-wheel dollies • Two metal plates for crossing doorways • Floor protection for the length of the route (masonite or lexan sheets 4 foot by 8 foot)(1.2 meter

by 2.4 meter). The heaviest piece to move is the Treatment Manipulator at 2,850 lbs (1,293 Kg). • Basic tools for uncrating the equipment • Tarps to cover or “stage” the equipment if the weather is bad • Straps

NOTE: Because the rig-in typically starts at 7:00AM, the rigging equipment will need to be delivered either before 7:00 AM or the night before (preferred).

5.3 CT Scanners Used for Patient Imaging CT scanner Selection The CyberKnife® System has been designed to deliver patient treatment with sub-millimeter accuracy. In order to ensure this high level of patient care and treatment, the image data sets that are sent from the customer’s CT scanner(s) to the CyberKnife System need to follow certain guidelines:

Other System Implementation Considerations

P/N 027264, Rev F 43

Minimum Requirements

A minimum 16-slice CT scanner should be used for Synchrony® cases. This will assure reasonably short scan times, high image quality, minimal fiducial movement, and minimum artifacts and movement due to patient breathing.

Minimum Requirements:

No more than 1.5 millimeter slice thickness must be used in order to maximize treatment accuracy.

NOTE: Variable slice thickness cannot be used with the CyberKnife® System.

Minimum Requirements:

Slice quantity: A maximum of 512 slices should be taken for Extra-Cranial (EC) cases.

4D Software Option:

If the customer has purchased Accuray’s 4D software option, they must have a CT scanner with a 4D option, as well. The current CT scanners supported by this option are:

• GE Discovery ST • Siemens Sensation Open • Philips Brilliance Big Bore

NOTE: If your facility’s CT scanner(s) cannot meet any of the requirements listed above, or you have any questions about these guidelines, please contact your Accuray Account Manager or Site Planner for more information.

CT Overlay Kits Each CT scanner used to supply image data sets to the CyberKnife System must have a flat overlay for the CT cradle, a 2 inch (51 millimeters) thick pad and a CIVCO base plate. These need to be present on the CT scanner at the time of system installation. They should be ordered well in advance of the installation, as lead times with the manufacturer can be as long as eight weeks.

Overlay tops are not needed for other modalities used during treatment planning, such as MRI, Angio or PET.

5.4 Information Technology Needs IP Addresses Three static IP addresses within the same subnet needed. One IP assigned to Cisco router as Management IP. The second IP also assigned to Cisco router as Forwarding IP. The third IP is assigned to the service technician for network access.

Additional static IP addresses may be needed for CyberKnife® workstations or printers that reside outside of the CyberKnife LAN.

Other System Implementation Considerations

44 P/N 027264, Rev F

Facility Network Ports Typically two are needed; one dedicated port in the Equipment Room near the equipment rack and one port in the Control Room that has (at least temporary) internet access.

Dedicated Network Ports For each system (MultiPlan®, MD Suite, CyberKnife System Administrative Workstation) and printer that resides within 328 feet (100 meters) of cable distance to the Equipment Room, we require a dedicated Cat-6 network cable to be run from the System to the Equipment Room (near the equipment rack). This will allow the system to be directly connected to the CyberKnife System network. These typically reside in the Treatment Planning Room or physicist’s office. Your Accuray Site Planner can help to define the number of systems that fall into this category. An example would be:

• Standard MultiPlan System • Standard or Optional MultiPlan System (depending upon contract) • Standard Color Laser Printer • Optional MultiPlan System • Optional MD Suite • Optional MD Suite • Additional Workstations for Future Growth • Additional Workstations for Future Growth

For more information, please see Accuray’s Installation I.T. Guide (Part Number 025168). Your site planner can provide this document to you.

Internet Access Requirements CyberKnife® PCs and workstations require Internet access to transfer diagnostic logs and enable remote access and remote management of CyberKnife devices. The following is a list of destination IP addresses and port requirements that needs to be setup or allowed through the customer’s network devices, firewalls, or routers. Enabling or permitting these specific communication rules allow Accuray Engineers to quickly obtain diagnostic logs and remote access to CyberKnife devices to resolve issues quickly that otherwise would take much longer or require a service technician to be onsite.
