BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Accurate beam data acquisition using three-dimensional (3D) water tanks is essential for beam commissioning and quality control (QC) in clinical radiation therapy. This study introduces a novel method for quantitative QC of the system, utilizing MV images and webcam videos. The stability of the motor drive speed and the positional accuracy of the fixture were evaluated under two measurement modes: "continuous mode" and "step-by-step mode." METHODS: A TRUFIX mounting system (PTW Freiburg Inc., Germany) was used to attach the center of the steel ball to its top, ensuring alignment with the water surface of the tank. To assess deviations from the radiation isocenter, MV images were acquired and compared with digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs). These evaluations were performed at different speed settings (slow, medium, and fast) using ET CT Body Marker (BRAINLAB Inc., USA) mounted on the drive unit. A webcam was utilized to capture the images, and custom-developed tracking software was employed to analyze deviations in driving speed and positional errors. RESULTS: The mean error of the radiation isocenter was 0.37 ± 0.09 mm. As the motor drive speed increased, the discrepancy between the set speed and the actual speed observed in the analysis also became larger. In "continuous mode," the deviation from the displayed value was greater than that observed in "step-by-step mode." CONCLUSION: It is demonstrated that the proposed analysis method can quantitatively evaluate radiation isocenter misalignment, tank setup position deviation, and both the indicated drive speed values and their stability. At higher drive speeds, the "step-by-step mode" showed smaller deviations from the indicated values.
