CIVCO to Feature New trUpoint ARCH SRS/SRT System at the 2nd ESTRO Forum 2013
CORALVILLE, Iowa – CIVCO Medical Solutions, the leading provider of comprehensive motion management solutions, will showcase trUpoint ARCH™, a new stereotactic radiosurgery solution, Protura™ Robotic Patient Positioning System, and the Universal Couchtop™ Long Extension, along with other disease site solutions at the 2nd ESTRO Forum, booth #5200 in Geneva, Switzerland, 19-23 April 2013.
   - trUpoint ARCH - CIVCO's new SRS/SRT solution for head and brain disease
      sites provides clinicians a simple and manageable patient set-up
      assuring accuracy and repeatability during treatments. The frameless
      bridge design effectively stabilizes a patient's head in a non-invasive,
      comfortable hold for delivering high radiation doses. Compatible with
      the Universal Couchtop, Posifix® thermoplastic system, AccuForm™
      cushions and Protura Robotic Patient Positioning System, trUpoint ARCH
      provides a comprehensive motion management solution for effective
       SRS/SRT treatment.
   - Universal Couchtop Long Extension - The Universal Couchtop Long
      Extension (UCT LE) facilitates better delivery of dose and target
      coverage by eliminating the interference of rails and junctions with
      radiation delivery.(1) The robust and durable UCT LE features a large
      junction-free and artifact-free treatment area. All four extension
      options attach and detach with ease. UCT LE allows a more efficient
      workflow with seamless transition from simulation to treatment provided
      by dosimetrically matching couchtops. Additionally, the unique profile
      of the UCT LE allows CIVCO's SBRT Body Pro-Lok™ bridges to attach
      directly to the couchtop, enabling a seamlessly integrated SBRT
      immobilization platform.
   - Protura Robotic Patient Positioning System - The Protura system is
      designed to integrate with existing IGRT solutions and Linac. The
      system positions the patient with 6 degrees of freedom from outside the
      treatment room, enabling more accurate treatment and keeps patient
      positioning and motion management on target. Protura provides the
      platform to provide a comprehensive motion management solution for every
      disease site.
CIVCO will debut their new interactive booth where attendees are invited to learn how comprehensive motion management solutions are clearly connected for every disease site.
