The world’s only synchrotron-based single room solution, the synchrotron accelerator technology allows for less shielding thus minimizing the overall size of the layout and the concrete cost to the building. Compared with our past layout, Hitachi has minimized and optimized the configuration yet utilized the identical gantry and accelerator technology which has been proven with our multi-room solution.
The combination of Hitachi’s 360 degrees compact rotating gantry and 30 x 40 cm irradiation field size enables users to widely treat many tumor sites. In addition, Hitachi’s spot scanning technology allows Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT) under fully-integrated Image guidance with gantry mounted isocentric CBCT. Our system is capable of interfacing with any motion management solutions, treatment planning system and oncology information system.
PROTEUS®ONE
IBA — Booth 3028
IBA PROTEUS® family is the proton therapy platform of the future with a comprehensive set of tools for motion management, with a demonstrated spot-scanning proton arc therapy irradiation, and finally, with an ultra high-dose rate capability for flash research.
PROTEUS®ONE is the only compact single-room image-guided IMPT solution, allowing easy integration into a variety of healthcare settings. Smaller and more affordable than conventional multiroom proton systems, but with the same clinical applications.
PROTEUS®PLUS
IBA — Booth 3028
IBA PROTEUS® family is the proton therapy platform of the future with a comprehensive set of tools for motion management, with a demonstrated spot-scanning proton arc therapy irradiation, and finally, with an ultra high-dose rate capability for flash research.
PROTEUS®PLUS is a multi-room proton therapy solution with the latest advances in precise, image-guided and intensity modulated proton beam delivery.
