New teletherapy techniques like Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) facilitate gradients of doses with very small margins, in other words, the dose of radiation given in two different sites separated for 5mm may vary in a quite radical way, obtaining differences up to the 50% or more. For this reason, the daily positioning and localization of the patient plays a crucial role, therefore all tools and immobilization devices available in the oncologic center to minimize all possibilities of imprecision are of vital interest to achieve the highest quality in treatments.
Forward Conformal Plan
Can arrange photon treatment, electron treatment, and also compounding treatment in forward conformal plan module. Block, aperture, mlc, wedge and bolus can be used for planning. Dose Volume Histograms (DVH) can also be calculated
Inverse Step & Shoot / Sliding IMRT Plan
Include Intensity-map based optimization and Aperture based optimization methods. 3D compensator and auto beam selection can also be arranged
Special Features
3D conformal planning, 2D planning and block design output
IMRT planning in either Step-and-Shoot or Sliding-Window modes
Inverse Sliding ARC IMRT planning to allow a typical treatment plan delivered within 2 to 5 minutes
Advanced fusion options include: plane fusion, marker point fusion, and automatic 3D fusion
DICOM 3.0/RT Image Import/Export Support for CT, MRI, and/or PET Image Sets
Multi-target plan design, 3D GTV enlargement to user defined CTV or PTV
Direct comparison of plan differences for plan optimization
Plan evaluations, DVH evaluations by individual or combined organ definitions
RT plan process virtual simulation prior to treatment delivery including collision testing

Sliding ARC IMRT and Delivery Package
TPS provides the complete package of planning modalities including conformal, forward and inverse planning techniques and Dynamic Sliding ARC with easy to use planning tools. The final plan can be easily exported to a Dynamic Multi-leaf Collimator (DMLC). Conformal, Step & Shoot and Sliding Window IMRT, and Sliding ARC
IMRT delivery protocols are supported by planning and export functions. Sliding ARC IMRT can deliver a typical treatment plan within 2 to 5 minutes. As a standard feature, The TPS also includes a DICOM RT import and export module providing communications to most RT devices and record and verify (R&V) networks!
Simple, Easy, Seamless and Accurate
Both the 3D fast full scatter Pencil Beam convolution algorithm for photon beam calculations and the 3D pencil beam algorithm for electron calculation offer fast dose calculations. Adding beams from the standard beam library or a user defined template beam library along with the automatic definition of the target isocenter makes TPS accurate as well as simple and easy to use
