It is integrated with Varian’s surface guidance system called IDENTIFY, which enables the identification of real-time changes in tumour position while the treatment is underway, ETHealthworld.com reports.
IDENTIFY technology also helps capture the movement in internal and external anatomy at the time of each treatment. It also helps guide through the setup and position of the patient in the treatment room with the help of visual assistance.
The system offers personalisation capabilities by adapting real-time treatment plans based on the location of the tumour and changing patient anatomy.
It allows for enhancing pre-treatment plans besides adapting to real-time changes during the treatment by attaining insights through AI-enhanced image segmentation and surface motion sensors.
