Compu•former® Radiotherapy
Compensator Mold Cutting System
Compu•former® helps deliver uniform radiation over an entire treatment field.
It produces a mold used to make a compensator that provides radiation beam
attenuation to “compensate” for inhomogeneity. The mold is cut from a
foam block using a highly accurate CNC milling machine. A Windows® driven
program interfaces with treatment planning systems for quick, accurate beam
compensation.
Radiotherapy teams worldwide depend on Huestis Medical ISO9001, EN46001
and CE certified beam compensator systems. Our dedication to quality is a
commitment to radiotherapy accuracy.
Features:
Uniform Radiation Dosage
Delivers uniform radiation dosage over the
•
entire treatment area.
Creates a compensating filter mold which
•
provides radiation beam attenuation to
“compensate” for inhomogeneity.
Treatment Planning Interfaces
Digitized files can be transferred from
•
treatment planning systems.
Treatment planning file conversion is built
•
in to ensure seamless integration.
Inhomogeneity corrections can be
•
accomplished through TPS interface.
Versatile Options
Compu•former
•
® offers an efficient and
economical package including computer,
menu-driven program.
CNC milling machine and supplies. Optional
•
digitizing package includes magnetic
source, hand-held sensor, and non-metallic
procedure table.
Manual Digitizing Option
Hand-held digitizing stylus works with a low
•
energy magnetic field generator to record
patient contours.
Data is converted to X, Y, Z coordinates and
•
averaged into smooth contours.
Contours can be viewed on screen from any
•
beam’s eye view to verify accuracy.
Non-metallic procedure table included.
•
Precision Milling Accuracy
Three-axis CNC milling machine ensures
•
milling accuracy of ±1 mm.
Cuts offset registration holes in block
•
to ensure proper orientation of the
compensator on lexan tray.
Produces repeatable, accurate, and fast cuts
•
for unmatched effectiveness.
