Gamma passing rates exceeded 94.5% except for 6\u00a0MeV, where deviations were confined to the buildup region. Lateral profiles showed gamma passing rates exceeding 96.7%, with differences dominated by ion chamber volume averaging. Comparisons with microSilicon exceeded 99% agreement for both PDDs and lateral profiles.
