The new microSelectron® Digital is the latest evolution of Nucletron’s distinguished afterloader series, with a 20 year reputation for reliability, safety and performance. The groundbreaking software architecture of the new platform combines these qualities with all-in-one versatility and unmatched flexibility that integrates completely into your radiation therapy program.
The microSelectron Digital works seamlessly with Nucletron’s Oncentra® treatment planning and imaging solutions and our brachytherapy applicators. As a result of the flexible platform concept, the microSelectron® Digital can treat every form of cancer for which High Dose Rate (HDR) and Pulsed Dose Rate (PDR) Brachytherapy is suitable in the most cost-effective and efficient way.
Flexible Because the functionality is in the software rather than the hardware, it is easy to upgrade from a 6 channel use option for treatments needing only a low number of channels (breast, gynecological, skin, esophageal, nasopharyngeal), to an 18 or 30 channel use option that will add complex interstitial breast, prostate, sarcoma and other treatments requiring a higher number of treatment channels. At the same time, every microSelectron® Digital is suitable for HDR and PDR modalities, supported by specially optimized intuitive graphical user interfaces for each modality.
Smart The microSelectron Digital provides computer-aided training, which helps shortening the learning curve for your staff, reducing operational cost for your clinic. The platform builds upon Nucletron’s closed-loop source logistics, and encompasses encrypted digital key technology for maximum security. The microSelectron Digital will perform automatic checks to ensure the source-strength is in the correct range.
Connected The microSelectron Digital is fully compatible with DICOM-based treatment records and plans, and works seamlessly with Nucletron’s Oncentra® treatment planning and imaging solutions. The platform also connects with Nucletron’s OnConnect system for off-site, remote monitoring to always ensure optimum performance of your system. It is fully compatible with Nucletron HDR and PDR brachytherapy applicators and consumables.
Future-proof, backward compatible Thanks to its platform design concept, each microSelectron® Digital afterloader can be easily tailored to exactly meet your needs. When you have invested in a 6 channel use option, you will be in a position to upgrade to an 18 or even a 30 channel use option if the need arises. The previous generation of microSelectron can be upgraded to the new version, bringing all the benefits of the latest digital technology in a cost-effective manner.
