  • Designed with a fully retractable flat panel imager to give you clear access around the patient.
  • Cone beam CT and an advanced 3D image based planning system (BrachyVision).
  • Acuity provides detailed images to guide you through any type of brachytherapy procedure, from low dose rate seed implants to high dose rate applicator insertions.

Furthermore, with Acuity and BrachyVision, you can delineate targets and critical structures reliably and accurately, quickly calculate and review complete, customized dose distribution plans, and easily verify the position of applicators during placement or treatment delivery. This high level of accuracy helps improve patient safety and increases the efficiency of treatment.
