Dedicated CT Scan for Planning Radiotherapy Treatment

Siemens Scope Power Radiotherapy Edition

16 Slice CT scanner with 5 MHU tube 320 MA current.

With IRIS this output is equivalent to 8 MHU and 540 MA.
These specifications allow us to get extremely high quality images for accurate delineation of tumors.

It has a very wide FOV (field of vision) for accurate target delineation & dose calculation.

Dedicated CT scan unit for Radiotherapy planning leads to a much higher precision as we don’t have to change setup for planning CT scan. And there is no time constraint in planning CT scans leading to a still higher precision. Another advantage of a dedicated CT scan machine is that we don’t have to wait for machine to be free, the machine is always waiting for you.
It has been equipped with the best software that enable us to do most of the image verification on the CT scan console itself instead of sending it to the treatment planning system to check consistency thus adding to the precision and reducing the patient’s hospital stay.

It has been equipped with Blue lasers (the thinnest lasers available in market) for very precise setup.

It has been equipped with IR cameras apart from the normal Gating cameras to do the Respiratory Gated CT scans for RPM gated treatment delivery.
