Stereotactic treatment delivery with full image guidance

The Elekta Axesse™ image guided stereotactic treatment delivery accelerator provides proven high conformance dose delivery through fine resolution beam shaping in conjunction with a suite of sophisticated treatment delivery techniques and sub-millimeter accuracy using the latest in image guided technology.

Building on Elekta’s long experience in linear accelerator technology and reputation in innovation the Elekta Axesse image guided stereotactic treatment delivery accelerator provides:

Advanced digital linear accelerator with exclusive cover set design providing 6MV photon energies and the unique potential for up to 2 additional photon energies and 7 electron energies.

The ability to treat non wedged, wedged, conformal, arc, IMRT, VMAT and stereotactic fields.

Full field conformance, asymmetry and leaf interdigitation maximizes the beam shaping ability with minimal penumbra.

Integrated high-resolution beam shaping ensuring maximum patient clearance.

Remote automatic table positioning in 3 as well as 6 degrees of freedom and assisted set up from inside and outside the treatment room maximising clinical workflow efficiency.

Advanced robotic image guided technology with 2D MV imaging and, 2D and 3D kV imaging capability, supported by a suite of software tools that

- enable fast and efficient integration of image guidance into the daily workflow
- ensure the highest accuracy possible for IMRT, VMAT, radiosurgery and stereotactic radiation therapy
- enable clinicians to take full advantage of IMRT and VMAT dose delivery without the need for implanted target surrogate markers, due to the high visualization capability of all soft tissue structures, target volume and critical structure position
- fast acquisition of 2D or 3D kV images with the patient in the treatment position, at the point of treatment for real tme modification
- allows precise registration of the reconstructed image data with the historical CT planning data as a non-invasive procedure
- confident tracking of sophisticated treatments such as IMRT and VMAT, with fast continuous, synchronized imaging

- provides imaging and analysis options through Planar View (2D static imaging), Motion View (2D sequence mode) and Volume View (3D Volumetric mode), imaging modalities

- DICOM CT export of images

- Segmental (Breath Hold) VolumeView™

Provides the user with the ability to interrupt and restart VolumeView™ acquisitions using the Function Key Pad.

Supports 3D acquisition during breath-holding procedures by allowing the acquisition of partial volumes for each separate breath hold, with subsequent reconstruction a single 3D image.

- 3D Shaped Registration Region of Interest

The 3D Shaped Registration Region of Interest can be generated from any structure imported from the Treatment Planning System, or created manually using tools in the software.

This allows generation of a 3D registration volume which conforms to anatomical structures.

- 3D Automated Seed Match Tool

This functionality employs an optimized 3D registration algorithm to register implanted markers, providing fast, efficient registration without compromising on 3D volumetric information.

- Critical Structure Avoidance
