Xsight® Lung Tracking System

Accuray introduces the Xsight® Lung Tracking System, a breakthrough in tracking technology. The Xsight System is the only system that uses internal anatomy to directly track targets with radiosurgery accuracy and precision without the need for external frames or implanted fiducials.

Breakthrough in tracking technology
The Xsight Lung Tracking System delivers the ultimate in soft tissue tracking technology. Unlike anything ever introduced into the radiation oncology market, the Xsight Lung Tracking System uses the actual image intensity of the lung tumor for targeting the beam. By tracking the tumor directly, clinicians can use radiosurgery to treat lung tumors with confidence while minimizing dose to adjacent healthy tissue.

Radiosurgery accuracy with no fiducials
The Xsight Lung Tracking System eliminates the need for invasive placement of radiographic markers, such as fiducials, in the delivery of many lung radiosurgery treatments. The Xsight Lung Tracking System registers directly to the tumor to track, detect and correct for tumor movement in real-time throughout the treatment.

A comprehensive tracking system
A truly easy to use, non-invasive system, the Xsight Lung Tracking System provides a highly accurate, comfortable alternative for patients and facilitates faster, less complex treatments for clinicians. The Xsight Lung Tracking System is designed to work seamlessly with the Synchrony® Respiratory Tracking System, allowing patients to breathe normally while delivering accuracy of less than 1.5mm.*

The Xsight Lung Tracking System uses advanced, highly sophisticated image processing and image registration techniques to automatically lock onto the tumor directly, tracking it throughout the entire procedure. This tracking innovation enables clinicians to easily treat patients without implanting fiducials.

Based on observations and analysis of clinical patient data, the Xsight Lung Tracking System is able to track most peripherally located lung tumors that are at least 15mm in diameter.* These peripheral tumor sites are also the most challenging areas for placing fiducials within the lung.

Clinical benefits include:

  • Provides a completely non-invasive treatment alternative for medically inoperable patients
  • Intelligently tracks, detects and corrects for tumor movement with continual image guidance throughout the treatment
  • Reduces invasive fiducial procedures–decreasing time to treatment
  • Eliminates the risk of pneumothorax and other complications of fiducial placement
  • Tracks with precise accuracy (less than 1.5mm)*
  • Is fully integrated with the Synchrony Respiratory Tracking System
    • Dynamically tracks targets that move with respiration
    • Minimizes irradiation of healthy tissue and critical structures
    • Allows patients to breathe normally–no complex gating or painful breath-holding techniques
