Radiation Therapy
• High volume coverage in time (16 X2.0 mm in 0.6 s)
minimizing motion artifacts and breath hold time
• Thin slice imaging for high quality DRRs (Digitally
Reconstructed Radiograph) and MPRs, especially for
conformal 3D therapy and IMRT (Intensity Modu-
lated Radiation Therapy)
• Complete CT simulation solution providing higher
geometrical accuracy of table and lasers and the
integration of flat table inserts
