An Evolution in HDR and PDR Brachytherapy Volume-Based Treatment Planning

Oncentra® Brachy represents an evolutionary step forward in the future of  treatment planning for brachytherapy. Oncentra Brachy represents a comprehensive and user-friendly window based planning system that includes state-of-the-art optimization algorithms to ensure efficient volume based treatment planning. Oncentra Brachy fits seamlessly into your daily routines and in combination with Oncentra® Simulation and Nucletron’s treatment delivery solutions to offer the truest solution to treat your patients. It is the the world’s first fully DICOM-compatible treatment planning solution for brachytherapy.

User-Friendly Features
Oncentra Brachy is designed to make the life of clinicians easy.
• Saves class solutions to ensure that fast planning of standard applications can be executed, saving time in your department; 
• Allows choices of a variety of visualization tools to suit your specific wishes.
• Shares information easily with the functionality of decentralized planning.

Contouring and Implant Reconstruction
The flexibility of the system is best illustrated during implant reconstruction. Oncentra Brachy offers a variety of tools to allow easy visualization to segment the desired volumes and implant. With the patient’s anatomy greatly visualized with the built-in Oncentra® Anatomy module, the solution allows automated catheter reconstruction and dose calculations.

Plan Optimization
Once the requirements are set, Oncentra Brachy can generate the optimal treatment plan with the help of the IPSA (Inverse Planning Simulated Annealing) algorithm. This allows the user to optimize and guarantee the patient receives the best possible treatment in just a few seconds.

Plan Evaluation
The Plan Analysis module offers full flexibility for the comparison, summary and subtraction of plans, doses and dose volume histograms. Using the ‘Cold & Hot Spot’ functionality, the physician can instantly determine the quality of the plan and redefine optimization settings if required. The ‘Live dose’ tool provides instant feedback on specific dose levels and values across the planes. When the evaluation is done the treatment plan is ready to be executed.

Film-based planning
A wide range of projective image data sets can be used for 3D reconstruction of implants and catheters. The hardcopy images can be scanned in the application through DICOM film scanners. The DICOM utility tool can convert JPEG and Bitmap formats to DICOM files for further processing.
