SHERIDAN, WYOMING – November 09, 2024 – Varian Medical Systems, a Siemens Healthineers company, is proud to showcase its innovative TrueBeam® radiotherapy system, a cutting-edge technology designed to revolutionize cancer treatment. TrueBeam integrates hardware, software, treatment regimens, and safety features to provide clinicians with the tools they need to deliver precise and effective radiation therapy.
"Advances in radiation therapy are accelerating, creating new options for treatment and new sources of optimism in the fight against cancer," says Varian Medical Systems.
TrueBeam's comprehensive capabilities enable clinicians to focus on patients and treatments rather than systems and technologies. The system's integrated imaging system allows for improved soft tissue target visualization and faster cone-beam CT (CBCT) acquisitions, facilitating breath-hold treatments.
The system's Agile Architecture, controlled by Maestro, synchronizes dosage, motion, and imaging for fast and efficient treatment.
TrueBeam's gated RapidArc® radiotherapy technology expands treatments to moving tumors, monitoring patient treatment with triggered imaging.
The IDENTIFY™ system¹, with its high-precision stereo vision cameras, supports non-invasive, markerless techniques to track patient surface in real-time during treatment.
Varian's HyperArc® High-Definition Radiotherapy delivers non-coplanar stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatments with automated and simplified operations, designed for patient safety, treatment efficiency, and accuracy.
TrueBeam's PerfectPitch™ 6 Degrees of Freedom (6DoF) couch adds pitch and roll axes, increasing flexibility in patient setups and allowing for more accurate treatment.
The system's ARIA® Oncology Information System provides rule-based decision support, enabling clinicians to make confident decisions.
TrueBeam's safety capabilities include simple, automated operation, multiple layers of built-in safety, and constant accuracy checks.
The TrueBeam platform enables clinicians to treat a wider range of cancer cases using diverse radiation therapies, including SRS, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), HyperArc, volumetric modulated radiation therapy (VMAT), intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT), and RapidArc radiotherapy.
TrueBeam's online 4D CBCT allows clinicians to visualize target motion in 3D, verifying target motion as expected from the treatment plan.
The system's Delta couch shift supports initial patient setup using a single stable tattoo mark, with a pre-programmed automated shift to the treatment isocenter.
Varian Medical Systems is committed to cultivating an environment that connects clinicians with TrueBeam's integrated features, the added value of their full suite of oncology solutions, and the latest research and breakthrough concepts in development.
The TrueBeam Developer Mode option allows for broad experimentation in a non-clinical environment, giving clinicians and physicists an efficient and effective means to innovate with new treatment and imaging techniques in a research mode.
Varian Medical Systems provides responsive service to keep TrueBeam systems online, clinicians productive, and patient satisfaction scores high.
Their SmartConnect® Plus remote equipment monitoring system automatically alerts Varian to potential issues, proactively diagnosing the issue and expediting repairs before problems escalate.
Varian's Professional Services organization delivers tailored programs to help clinicians achieve higher clinical availability, more efficient workflows, safer technology use, faster treatment times, and a more relaxed patient experience.
Varian Medical Systems has been a pioneer in oncology for over 70 years, introducing innovative treatment techniques, equipment, and software used to treat thousands of cancer patients worldwide.
They offer products and services to advance the entire cancer treatment process, uniting a community of those affected by cancer around the common goal to fight this disease.
