the image guided stereotactic treatment management system

  • The combination of true 3D and 4D image guided accuracy, 6D patient positioning and highly conformal beam shaping minimizes the risk of set-up error, helps avoid critical structures during treatment and compensates for motion.
  • To improve set-up efficiency, Elekta Axesse incorporates integrated indexing facilities designed to be compatible with CT, MR, PET, SPECT and ultrasound for larger field-size requirements.
 


This unparalleled level of precision offers clinicians the confidence to treat targets more aggressively while ensuring dose avoidance of healthy tissue and critical structures.


Vacuum activated fixation

State-of-the-art patient immobilization incorporates non-invasive dual vacuum activated fixation to minimize patient movement, helping to maintain accurate targeting during delivery.

Head frame

The relocatable, non-invasive head frame is constructed from carbon fiber and is both CT and MR compatible. The vacuum-sealed bite-block fixation ensures excellent results. Research has shown that effective and easily tolerated patient immobilization is essential in achieving stereotactic accuracy.

Accuracy

Radiographer at VolumeView system

VolumeView™ workflow protocols with innovative 3D low-dose X-ray volume imaging (XVI) technology, combined with superior beam shaping capabilities and 6D robotic table adjustments with sub-millimeter precision ensure the dose is delivered exactly as prescribed. Visualization of soft tissues allows for day-to-day compensation for target/organ shrinkage and deformation, thus maintaining a consistent standard of treatment quality.

 

  

Dose control

Multiple energy choices allow planning and delivery of the most effective treatment to the patient. This enables flexibility in beam arrangement, allowance for patient size and different anatomical sites, and the ability to better avoid critical structures. A greater choice of technique and the ability to better manage entrance and exit doses enhance the opportunity to tailor individual treatments to specific patients and pathologies.

 

Flexibility

 

Elekta Axesse rotating

The largest stereotactic fieldsize available enables more beam configurations and treatment options. Combine this with the flexibility of a 360 degree, 90cm clearance around the patient plus the widest range of non-coplanar angles and this allows radiation delivery impossible to replicate with other systems.

Confidence

QA tools in use
Integrated QA tools enable the physics team to maximize efficiency and maintain the highest levels of device precision, while a high degree of automation reduces the physicist’s workload.
