Radiation oncology imaging system

Feb. 3, 2010

Acceletronics' Theraview KV Imaging IGRT system for radiation oncology facilities can be mounted to any brand of linear accelerator, whether Varian, Elekta or Siemens, allowing a seamless upgrade to KV-imaging IGRT (image-guided radiation therapy). The Theraview KV IGRT system is offered in single-head and dual-head configurations, and supplements the Theraview MV IGRT system (marketed as an electronic portal imaging device, or EPID). The system allows for more-precise radiation therapy treatment delivery through the use of IGRT. Immediately prior to each session for the delivery of radiation, the system takes a real-time X-ray image of the patient and compares it to the previous reference.
