Radiation oncology firms Varian Medical Systems and Resonant Medical have resolved their patent issues and settled their outstanding litigation in return for certain payments to Varian. The firms said they have also taken steps toward achieving interoperability between some of their radiotherapy products.
The agreement provides for the testing of connectivity and data interchange between Varian's 4D integrated treatment console for its Clinac and Trilogy medical linear accelerators and Resonant's Restitu platform.
Under the terms of the settlement, financial details are not being disclosed, according to Varian of Palo Alto, CA, and Resonant of Montreal.
