  2. Varian TrueBeam

  3. Why Varian TrueBeam? • New platform technology • Improved imaging • Efficiency • Fast and precise • Upgradability • Most reliable equipment • Unlocks treatments • Enhanced patient comfort

  4. Varian TrueBeam

  5. New Beam Generation System • All new accelerator guide • Variable energy switch • Simplified and integrated bend magnet • New energy/foil carousel and target system • Real-time electron gun gating • Maximum flexibility in dosimetry <5 MU/min up to 2400 MU/min

  6. New Beam Generation System • The TrueBeam system has been designed from the ground up to optimize radiotherapy and radiosurgery • Delivers powerful cancer treatments with pinpoint accuracy and precision • Seamless integration of treatment, imaging and motion management

  7. Radically Different Future • Designed to optimize radiotherapy and radiosurgery • Integrates and choreographs powerful imaging and treatment systems • Unparalleled accuracy • Unlocks new treatment options • Allows patients to receive radiation with less treatments • Treats new cancers that were previously untreatable

  8. More Treatment Options • Provide more options for treating complex cancer cases including lung, breast, liver, abdomen, head and neck • IMRT, IGRT, RapidArc, Gated RapidArc, SBRT, SRS

  9. Gated RapidArc • Next evolutionary step • Compensates for tumor motion • Expands application of RapidArc treatments to moving tumors • Enables fast treatmentsof tumors that move with respiration • Minimizes exposure to healthy tissues

  10. Gated RapidArc

  11. Multiple Energy Support • 6 X-ray energies • 8 electron energies • Tailor treatments to individual patients • Select optimal energy for specific clinical need

  12. Improved CBCT Quality • Overall, better image uniformity • Cupping artifact has been minimized - apparent when performing window and level • Improvement in the skin line definition • Better HU accuracy under all conditions

  13. Imaging on Demand • Higher capacity X-ray tube • Acquire a radiograph,CBCT image, or perform fluoroscopy, anytime • Automated filter management • Variable collimation

  14. New Standards in Accuracy • Mechanical and Imaging Isocenter Accuracy < 0.75 mm • Gantry rotational:< 0.3 degrees • Collimator rotational:< 0.5 degrees

  15. Submillimeter Couch Accuracy • Compensates for mechanical deflection • Rotational accuracyfor patient positioning 0 to+ 6 degrees: < 0.4 degrees • Spatial translational accuracy for patient positioning+ 5 cm shift: < .5 mm

  16. Unrivaled Treatment Precision • All within 10 milliseconds • Accuracy in increments of less than a millimeter • Submillimeter alignment for imaging and treatment isocenter

  17. 50 • One button image acquisition and full automation of beam delivery make treatments 50% faster* • Changing imaging procedures and protocols is simple and fast • Position and treat in less time than RapidArc benchmark % Faster

  18. TrueBeam™ Treatment Console

  19. Fast and Precise = Fast & Precise Treatments Synchronized Imaging & Delivery

  20. Enhanced Image Guidance • Simplified, Automated Imaging Modes • Image Acquisition during Treatment—kV and MV • Respiration synchronized kV and MV Imaging

  21. TrueBeam

  22. TrueBeam

  23. Enhanced Patient Comfort

  24. Built with Patient Comfort in Mind • Quiet operation provides for more comfortable environment • Shorter treatment times, less interruption to patient’s daily lives • Music can be played during treatments to increase patient comfort

  25. Enhanced Patient Interaction • Constant interaction between the patient and therapist • New communication system enables the therapist to monitor the patient from outside the treatment room

  26. Allow More Time with Patient • Guided workflow • Streamlined tasks • Prompted and predicted next steps • Common user interface for Console, Pendant and Couch controls
