Elekta Studio workflow

Typical brachytherapy workflow:
•    Patient movement: The patient is moved across rooms multiple times during the process.
•    Treatment planning: While the treatment is being planned, the patient often waits in another room.
•    Lack of in-room imaging: Without in-room imaging, the team cannot detect any applicator or needle displacement that may occur during patient transport.
•    Impact on treatment: This results in the delivery of a suboptimal treatment plan.

Cons of traditional workflow:
•    Inefficiency: Multiple patient movements across rooms cause delays.
•    Reduced accuracy: Applicator or needle displacement introduces uncertainties in treatment.
•    Patient discomfort: Long waiting times and multiple movements contribute to discomfort.

Elekta studio single-room brachytherapy workflow:
•    Single location treatment: The patient stays in one place, treated by the same team from applicator insertion to removal.
•    Live imaging: Real-time 2D and 3D imaging available at any stage of the treatment procedure.
Pros of Elekta Studio Workflow:
•    Optimal dose distribution: Ensures accurate and effective treatment.
•    Improved implant accuracy: Better precision in applicator and needle placement.
•    Enhanced patient comfort: Reduced waiting times and fewer movements lead to greater comfort.
•    Real-time verification: Ability to adapt applicator and needle position during treatment for better accuracy.
•    Increased efficiency: Streamlined workflow reduces delays and improves overall treatment delivery

Elekta studio revolutionizes the brachytherapy workflow, facilitating improved efficiency, accuracy and patient comfort in one room.
