Elekta Synergy® MotionView™ helps locate targets that move on a high frequency basis. This becomes particularly critical with the use of small treatment fields or in PreciseBEAM® IMRT. Like fluoroscopy, MotionView™ allows evaluation of patient motion while the patient is in the treatment position, for optimum treatment delivery. |

Developed to address intrafractional organ motion, MotionView™ allows the clinician to visualize patient organ motion for evaluation of field coverage for optimum treatment delivery. Even when a device such as the Elekta Active Breathing Coordinator™ is being employed, MotionView™ is useful for monitoring other motion in the thorax or upper abdomen (cardiac rhythms, bowel movements, etc.).
The key visualization advantages offered by MotionView™ imaging at the time of treatment include:
- real-time movement of dense features
- lung tumors (high contrast to air)
- bony landmarks
- implanted markers in soft tissue targets
