LinaTech LLC's Add-On Cancer Treatment Solutions Wow Attendees at ASTRO Annual Meeting

Sep 22-25, 2013

LinaTech was among the exhibitors at the 55th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) held in Atlanta, Georgia USA from September 22-25, 2013. With more than 11,000 attendees, including oncologists from all disciplines, medical physicists, dosimetrists, and radiation therapists from around the world, ASTRO was a great opportunity for LinaTech to showcase its leading-edge radiotherapy technologies.

At the trade show, LinaTech unveiled its GPU-based Monte Carlo (MC) Treatment Planning System (TPS), which complements its hardware and software solutions engineered to provide superior and cost-effective products for the treatment of cancer with radiotherapy. While LinaTech's Pencil Beam and Convolution algorithm-based TPS provides a complete package of planning modalities, including conformal, forward & inverse planning techniques, and dynamic sliding ARC with easy-to-use planning tools, the addition of the Monte Carlo calculation algorithm provides far greater accuracy in calculating the 3-D dose distributions essential for the effective treatment of head & neck, lung, and esophagus cancer cases.

LinaTech's MC-based TPS demonstrated remarkable accuracy and speed during ASTRO, attracting the attention and interest of many visitors. By leveraging the power of GPU computing, LinaTech's MC-based TPS delivers the fastest calculation time in the industry, while maintaining the highest level of accuracy. This innovative technology provides medical professionals with powerful tools to improve the accuracy and efficiency of radiation treatment.
