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
