Experience Clarity with ClearRT™
ClearRT™* helical kVCT imaging provides clinicians with clear high-fidelity images for use in radiation therapy treatment delivery and planning. The enhanced image clarity provided by ClearRT, enables clinicians to efficiently see more, know more, and do more in comparison to conventional treatment systems. ClearRT avoids the distortions caused by MR imaging and the artifacts associated with conventional cone beam CT by using hardware technologies that allow the system to produce the highest quality native image.
Designed for clinicians that want maximum flexibility, maximum image quality, and maximum image size, ClearRT delivers industry leading functionality to maximize clinical treatment delivery capabilities. Able to image a meter in a minute, it provides clinicians the industries longest continuous scan length, up to 135 cm, for fast and easy setup for patients with long targets and to better serve adaptive planning needs. Providing the industry’s largest field of view (FOV) at 50 cm, ClearRT assists clinicians with the setup of large patients or large fields without cutting off anatomy. The industry leading image quality and anatomical accuracy produced by ClearRT allows clinicians to quickly and confidently setup patients for treatment. With automated dose monitoring provided by PreciseART®, ClearRT image fidelity allows clinicians can evaluate if plan adaptation would be beneficial and provides images upon which re-planning could be performed using PreciseRTX®.
*ClearRT Helical kVCT Imaging for the Radixact® Treatment Delivery System is not available for sale in all markets. ClearRT may be subject to international regulatory approval or licensing processes such that the availability of these products may vary according to geographical location.
20+ YEARS OF EVIDENCE
This ClearRT innovation is building on more than two decades of clinical evidence and real-world use for the TomoTherapy and Radixact systems. Don’t take our word for it — hear the proof directly from your expert peers:
