DVS (developed by Sicel Technologies, Inc.) stands for dose verification system & it is being used only at St. Mary’s Hospital in Passaic, NJ. It is an implantable device & approved by the FDA. It lets the doctor know how much radiation is being absorbed instead of just guessing, therefore giving the patient a more exact dose of radiation therapy to their tumor.
