Leksell GammaPlan® -
Convolution
Software for dose calculation in heterogeneous tissue
Convolution is an optional software module in the Leksell GammaPlan portfolio. It enables accurate dose calculation for the treatment of heterogeneous tissue – such as tissue-air and tissue-bone interfaces – to facilitate rapid generation of dose plans for these tissues. Convolution provides dose calculation accuracy that approaches the quality of the Monte Carlo algorithm.* Users can choose TMR (tissue-maximum ratio) or Convolution depending on target localization.
* Based on the results of benchmarking comparisons between Convolution and Monte Carlo calculations.
