Project Description
TREATMENT PLANNING SYSTEM
PCRT 3D is a complete radiotherapytridimensional planning system intended for photon and electron treatments managed by an intuitive, easy, flexible and versatile application, which complies with a strict Quality Assurance Program based on the AAPM and IAEA recommendations.
The system allows full imaging device networking through DICOM (CT, MR, PET, Ultrasound, PACS, etc…), Treatment Units (LINAC, portal image devices, and block mold cutting system), R&V Systems and other TPSs.
Scalable Architecture System
PCRT3D offers a number of application fields, including: Virtual Simulation, External Radiation Treatment with LINACs or Cobalt Units, IMRT, Brachytherapy and Permanent Seeds Implant.
User-Friendly
The graphic interface -based on Windows- is easy to use and intuitive, allowing for convenient swift and efficient performance.
Traceable
PCRT3D includes a software security system based on users and user rights. Any modification made in a specific planning is registered in a database.
Continuos Development
PCRT3D is a continuously evolving system, developed by a team of highly experienced professionals -including engineers, physicists and Medical physicists who are, also, part in providing our clients with technical assistance and support.
Continuos Development
We offer different payment options including Pay as You PlanSystem: Customer purchases individual licenses for patient plans.
Easy
Contouring is user-friendly and easy, allowing an intuitive use of the software. All operations are displayed in real-time, in axial, sagittal, coronal, DRR and 3D imaging.
Multimodal
The automatic multimodal registration algorithm performs intermodal fusion using CT, PET, MR images, with no restrictions with regards to the positioning of the patient, making the identification of anatomical structures unnecessary.
Powerful
PCRT3D provides a wide range of tools to define organs in the most complex 3D operations, allowing the easy creation of new volumes based on previously generated ones.
Interactive
Real-Time Virtual Simulation with all possible configurations and utilities available: Wedges, Blocks, Bolus, Compensators and Multileaf Collimators. All of the beam’s geometrical parameters can be configured by simply using the mouse or the keyboard.
Connectivity
The import and export is based on the standard DICOM, which is compatible with all manufacturers.
Versatile
The definition for the radiation beams is directly edited on the DRR as well as on axial, sagittal and coronal images, whether manually or automatically.
Accurate
PCRT3D provides the most suitable algorithm for each specific scenario:
Photons: Collapsed Cone superposition convolution and 3D modified Clarkson integration.
Electrons: Pencil Beam.
Additionally, redundant MU’s/time calculation is automatically performed by the system.
Customizable
Templates can be created from user plans to ease theplanning process.Simultaneous displays of different plan options to select the treatment of choice.The printed reports can be configured using an editor, and the treatment planning sheets can be automatically generated.
IMRT
PCRT3D offers different options for IMRT planning through the definition on the DVH. Inverse planning with Step & Shoot segmentation, sliding windows or physical compensators.
Electronic Compensator to achieve a homogenous dose distribution.
Equipment quality assurance
Specific tools to perform quality control of Linear Accelerator following TG142 and quality control of XRay equipment.
Treatment quality assurance
Allowing to comparethe calculated dose map from the TPS and the measured delivered dose by films or 2D arrays using Distance to Agreement (DTA) and Gamma Analysis.
Start up of the TPS: Onsite training, beam modelling and review of the users’first plans.
Remote monitoring connection to customers’ workstationsin real time,to solve doubts and incidences during the execution of the application.
