Siemens CT Vision image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) system combines a Siemens linac and a computed tomography (CT) system on rails in the treatment room. The table rotates between the linac and the CT scanner. The CT slides over rails to scan the patient on the stationary table. The image is sent to the syngo RT Therapist workstation to aid in proper patient positioning and calculation of table offsets prior to the treatment session.
