Image-Guided Radiotherapy System aids cancer treatment.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Mar 25, 2011 TrueBeam(TM) treats tumors, including those that move during treatment as patient breathes in/out, in image-guided radiotherapy and radiosurgery applications. Integrated technologies dynamically synchronize imaging, patient positioning, motion management, and treatment delivery. Specific areas of use include treatment of lung, breast, prostate, head, neck, and other types of cancer.

Radiation Therapy System integrates image guidance.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Sep 09, 2009 As low-energy system, UNIQUE(TM) Performance Edition incorporates all tools needed to establish or enhance clinically effective radiotherapy treatment operation for international cancer clinics. Image-guidance and RapidArc® treatment capabilities supplement medical linear accelerator, which incorporates technologies for reliable and consistent dose control, delivery, and beam shaping. System is suited for treating cancers of head and neck, breast, cervix, and prostate.

X-Ray Image Detector suits angiography equipment.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Jun 09, 2009 Operating at speeds up to 30 fps, PaxScan® 3030+ lets physicians monitor interventional procedures, including placement of catheters within blood vessels, in real-time. Multi-modality panel is also designed for use in cardiovascular imaging systems and surgical C-arms. While 194 micron pixel pitch results in images with enhanced contrast resolution and no distortion, cesium iodide scintillator optimized for scanning at 40-150 kV minimizes X-ray dose to patient.

Software provides oncology image management and storage.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Dec 10, 2008 With OncoView(TM), clinicians can store, manage, and view images generated during entire cancer treatment process, from diagnosis to survivorship and follow-up. Oncology-specific program can supplement hospital's existing PAC system or operate as stand-alone solution. Software supports archiving of commonly used imaging modalities, including CT, MR, PET, kV X-rays, cone-beam CT, and electronic portal images, as well as non-imaging data, including radiotherapy treatment plans and dose levels.

Digital X-ray Image Detectors are suitable for radiography.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Dec 31, 2007 At 14 x 17 in., PaxScan® 4336R can replace standard film cassette in radiographic applications, while 17 x 17 in. PaxScan 4343R is designed for permanent mounting in radiographic tables or wall stands. Image data and control signals, based on Gigabit Ethernet interface, can be passed to and from detectors using standard network interface cards. Both flat-panel solutions come with VIVA(TM) system design and development application for image acquisition and viewing.

HDR Afterloaders optimize brachytherapy treatments.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Nov 05, 2007 Used to facilitate HDR (high dose rate) brachytherapy delivery and optimize treatment of cancer patients, iX series afterloaders utilize Windows-based control software that integrates with Varian's BrachyVision(TM) treatment planning system. From logging onto system to treatment delivery, iX console software walks operator through process step by step, presenting information in controlled and logical manner to ensure no detail is overlooked.

Digital X-Ray Image Detector has 127-micron pixel pitch panel.

Varian Medical Systems, Inc.    Palo Alto, CA 94304
Aug 16, 2006 Optimized for use in dental and orthopedic imaging as well as semiconductor inspection systems, PaxScan® 1313 offers 13 x 13 cm imaging area and produces up to 30 images/sec. It generates images of up to 16,000 shades of gray due to 14-bit depth ADC, and flat panel has distortion-free imaging area with 127 micron pixel pitch. For medical imaging applications, panel features cesium iodide scintillator optimized for scanning at 80-90 kV.
