Percent depth dose (PDD) and profiles were also measured. Timer testing and ultrasound testing were performed. A treatment time calculation worksheet was created. Quality assurance (QA) of SRT\u2010100 Vision was implemented. After treatment workflow for our clinic was developed, end\u2010to\u2010end (E2E) testing was performed using a Rando phantom. Considerations for treatment using SRT\u2010100 Vision were made.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Absolute output (cGy\/min) decreases as energy increases and applicator size decreases. Due to scatter from the applicator, PDD at depths \u22645\u00a0mm does not follow conventional trends but PDD at depths \u226515\u00a0mm increases with increasing applicator size. Profiles for the 5\u00a0cm applicator do not have strong dependence on depth except profiles at 5\u00a0mm for 50\u00a0kV. Timer\/end errors are negligible for all three energies. Ultrasound images confirm allowed field of view and depth as well as no image artifacts and spatial integrity. Daily, monthly and annual QA of SRT\u2010100 Vision implemented in our clinic is listed in a table format. E2E testing results (&lt;1%) demonstrate the functionality and performance of our treatment workflow. Our considerations for SRT treatment include patient, applicator size and energy selections, patient setup, and shields.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This article is expected to serve as guidance for Radiation Oncology and\/or Dermatology clinics aspiring to
