Radiation therapy clinic provider RaySearch Laboratories has launched the v2025 version of its RayStation treatment planning system.
The company highlighted the integration of the autoplanning algorithm ECHO, developed originally by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. ECHO is designed to optimize treatment plans based on predefined planning protocols designed for various clinical indications, according to RaySearch.
Another key feature is the Plan Explorer module, which is based on the capability to automatically generate a large number of treatment plans for different tradeoffs and combinations of treatment techniques and machines.
In addition, the new version offers RayStation Ablation for liver ablation guidance.
v2025 also provides support for planning of treatments where the Leo Cancer Care upright patient positioning system is used.
While not available for sale or use in the U.S. and Canada at this time, three new models have been added for deep-learning planning, one for brain tumor patients receiving proton radiotherapy and two for photon treatments: a locoregional model for breast cancer patients, including treatment of the lymph nodes, and an oropharynx model for head and neck patients, the company noted. Moreover, v2025 also comes with 201 different segmentation models.
