GE Medical Systems debuted its CT system dedicated to radiotherapy planning, the LightSpeed RT, at the American Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ASTRO) meeting in Salt Lake City. The system features feature an extra-wide gantry opening, a wide display-field-of-view, and oncology software applications such as the Waukesha, WI-based vendor’s Advantage Sim, Advantage Fusion, and its Advantage 4D respiratory gating package.
LightSpeed RT also comes with the vendor’s Xtream technology, GE’s workflow productivity engine that delivers rapid image reconstruction and real-time, gigabyte image transfer rates to review stations or PACS, GE said.
