Mevion Medical Systems and radiation therapy software developer RaySearch have extended their collaboration on proton therapy products and technologies.
The companies are looking to further advance the capabilities of Mevion's Hyperscan proton therapy system and the Adaptive Aperture proton multileaf collimator in RaySearch's RayStation treatment planning system. They'll do so with the addition of multicriteria optimization and graphics processing unit (GPU)-powered computation speed into the treatment planning process.
The upgrade is designed to improve overall treatment planning efficiency by reducing calculation time without adversely affecting plan quality.
