The investigation was completed by conducting a thorough evaluation of the product and the reported information.The customer reported that mosaiq crashed.The investigation found from the machine, audit and itcsm logs that for the treatment session fields a:tx b:tx c:tx d:tx e:tx f:tx g:tx were sent to the machine.In this session, mosaiq received six dicom beam records for all fields except there was no beam record for field g.From the machine logs it was ascertained that mosaiq did not crash but that it was correctly rebooted (with unloaded).Despite field g that had not been treated the user proceeded to exit the treatment session.The user then selected field g and manually recorded that the field was partially treated for 126mu out of 259mu.It is unclear where 126mu came from as it was not seen in the logs or beam records.The customer should check with the supplier of the linac to confirm whether field g was treated in full or partially treated.With the information provided, this is use error as the customer did not complete the whole treatment for field g.Based upon the available information elekta have performed a severity analysis that if the dose was not fully delivered this would have been a negligible radiation underdose.Elekta has been unable to determine the root cause as to why field g beam records were not sent to mosaiq.Mosaiq did not have any malfunction and was working as designed and intended.
