Xoft Inc., an electronic brachytherapy developer, showcases the expanded treatment capabilities of the Axxent eBx System. Xoft’s eBxtechnology delivers a high therapeutic dose to a cancer tumor while sparing nearby normal tissue.

Philips delivers time-of-flight (TOF) technology with its innovative TruFlight technology provided in its PET/CT systems. Philips TruFlight is TOF technology designed to improve image quality, especially for large patients, while it boosts procedure capacity. Now with 4D TOF available in the GEMINI TF Big Bore and the GEMINI TF, Philips continues to push the envelope of PET imaging performance.

Imagine being able to view vascular, soft tissue, bony, and abnormal structures at the same time is possible with Philips Healthcare's AcQSim³ workstation’s volume-rendered Digitally Composited Radiographs (DCRs). And AcQSim³‘s virtual fluoroscopy mode mimics the movement of a conventional fluoroscopic simulator – to permit fast target definition.

Known as GPS for the Body technology, the Calypso System utilizes miniature implanted Beacon transponders to provide precise, continuous, real-time information about the location of the tumor target during external beam radiation therapy. Any movement by the patient, including internal movement of the tumor, has the potential to compromise treatment accuracy.
