June 6, 2023 — RaySearch Laboratories has announced that New York University (NYU) Langone Hospital - Long Island (Mineola, NY) has placed an order for the treatment planning system RayStation. The hospital is equipped with Varian linear accelerators, Accuray CyberKnife and Accuray Radixact systems, all of which are RayStation compatible.
The installation will provide NYU with advanced automation tools using machine learning techniques for efficient segmentation, according to the company statement. Raysearch further reported that contingency in the clinic will also be enhanced by the feature fallback planning which ensures that alternative treatment plans are available in case a specific machine is not available; other key RayStation features to be implemented include multi-criteria optimization, deformable registration, and adaptive treatment planning.
"We seek to continually implement new technologies in the Department of Radiation Oncology at NYU,” said Matthew Witten, MD, PhD, Chief Physicist, Department of Radiation Oncology at NYU Langone Hospital – Long Island. Witten, who also serves as Director of the hospital's Division of CyberKnife Radiosurgery, added, “RayStation will provide a unified solution for treatment planning across all modalities, including conventional linear accelerators, CyberKnife, Radixact, and high-dose rate brachytherapy. Our goal is to make our department even more efficient, and to further our ability to provide world-class care for our patients."
"We are pleased to help NYU Langone – Long Island to enhance treatment quality and efficiency by implementing RayStation for all their treatment techniques and machines," said Johan Löf, founder and CEO of RaySearch, a Swedish medical technology company which develops software solutions for cancer treatment.
