The integration of MR imaging in radiation therapy facilitates real time motion
management.
The CIRS Zeus MRgRT Motion Management QA phantom is designed to
address such needs. Zeus is MR Safe due to the use of piezoelectric motors
and non-ferro-magnetic materials. The two piezoelectric motors move a cylin-
drical insert, which contain a tracking target, through a gel/liquid fillable body
by rotating it independently from the motion in the Inferior-Superior direction.
The moving insert contains an organic shaped target (tumor) filled with gel,
which is surrounded by the same background gel used to fill the body. The
body represents a heterogenous background due to simulated lungs, liver,
kidney and spine. The simulated organs are anatomical in shape and have a
life-like spatial relationship. They are filled with gels that provide contrast in CT
and MR versus the background gel, which fills the void between the organs.
Besides imaging, all organs, except for the lungs, offer ion chamber dosimetry
cavities, which allow for completing an entire QA process; from imaging to
planning to verification of dose delivered.
Zeus is designed as a single unit with a piezo actuator fixed permanently to
a base plate on which the MRI body “snaps”. This allows for quick setup, re-
moval, filling, and storage purposes. The phantom’s base plate has machined
slots on the bottom, which allow for the use of indexing bars for precise and
repeatable/reproducible phantom-MRI (MRI-Linac) alignment.

The following are the recommended steps to install the “USB to Network Adapter” that was shipped with this phantom. The new Net-
work Connection must be setup as a Static IP address in order for the PC to communicate with the motion controller of the phantom.
Setup notes for Dynamic Phantoms with controller con-
necting to a PC using an Ethernet connection:
Note: The provided “USB to Network Adapter” can act as Plug and
Play device on some PC but CIRS recommends doing the installation
of the driver as outlined above.
1. To install the necessary driver, unzip the “USB-to-Network
Adapter” folder found on the provided USB drive or download
the zipped folder from the CIRS website. Unzip to a known
location and follow instructions from “Instructions.pdf”
document.
2. Follow the on screen steps and acknowledge all the mes-
sages related to driver’s installation. Once the driver installa-
tion is finished, plug the “USB-to-Network Adapter” into
your PC’s USB port and acknowledge the Windows installa-
tion message. Exit the “USB-to-Network Adapter Software”
menu by clicking Exit.
3. From the Control Panel, open the Network and Sharing Cen-
ter and then select “Change adapter settings”.
4. Providing that the installation of the “USB-to-Network Card”
was successful, the newly installed Network Adapter should
show as “ASIX AX88179 USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter”.
Select it’s Properties using the right mouse click menu as
shown below.

5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click on prop-
erties 6. In the internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) properties window, change from default “Obtain an IP address automatically” to
“Use the following IP address:” Enter “192.168.0.101” as the
IP address and “255.255.255.000” as the Subnet mask.
Note: If an IP address conict occurs because IP address
192.168.0.101 is already assigned to another Net
work Adapter, the user can try any other IP address between
192.168.0.102 and 192.168.0.249.
7. Once the IP address is entered, click OK. Connect the PC to
the Controller using the provided Ethernet cable by inserting
one end of the cable in the controller’s Ethernet port and the
other one in the “USB-to-Network Adapter”. Power on the
controller. To check that the PC to controller connection was
successful, ensure the icon of the “ASIX AX88179 USB 3.0 to
Gigabit Ethernet Adapter” in the Control Panel matches the
image below. Network Connection can be renamed using the
right mouse click menu.
8. A more in depth check of the PC-to-controller communication
connection can be done by running a “ping command” in Com-
mand Prompt as seen in the image below. To ping the controller,
type “ping 192.168.0.250” and press enter. Ping certifies
IP-level connectivity to another TCP/IP device. If you receive
Ping statistics for IP address 192.168.0.250 (controller IP ad-
dress) the communication connection between the PC and
controller was successful.

INTRODUCTION
CIRS Motion Control is an application which allows you to control
the movement of the CIRS Model 008Z MrgRT Motion Management
Phantom and model 008PL Dynamic Platform. With CIRS Motion
Control, you can quickly set up a movement based on a library of
pre-defined motions, including Sin, Cos4, Cos6, Sawtooth, Shark-
fin, Hysteresis ( Model 008A only) and Continuous Drift, Transient
Excursion, Persistent Excursion, High-Frequency Excursion, or you
can import custom motion data from any tab-delimited or comma-
separated text file. CIRS Motion Control also allows you to save any
motion to easily access the same parameters for repeated calibra-
tion and testing.
INSTALLATION
The CIRS Motion Control application requires the Trio PC Motion
library, which allows the computer to recognize the Trio controller
board in the Dynamic Phantom or Platform. To install the Trio PC
Motion library, double-click Trio_PC_Motion_ActiveX_2_12_0_Setup
and follow the steps in the InstallShield Wizard.
To install CIRS Motion Control, double-click MotionControl-
Setup or Setup and follow the steps in the Setup Wizard. The
