VIDAR^® DosimetryPRO^® Advantage (Red)

Introduction

• VIDAR's DosimetryPRO^® film digitizer, the only digitizer with a 32 bit data path and outputting 16 bits of grayscale data.
• The fast growing areas of Quality Assurance and IMRT have increased the need for precision. Radiation physicist and oncologists need consistent treatment beams used for cancer treatment . VIDAR's state-of-the-art DosimetryPRO Advantage was designed to meet these exacting needs.
• The company again has raised the bar with its Advantage product platform - evolved from the company’s pioneering high-defnition CCD (HD-CCD^®) and hallmark "plus" digitizer technologies.
• With more than 10 years of experience serving the Oncology market, VIDAR's Advantage product platform is the culmination at 14 years of product innovation by VIDAR Systems Corporation - the worldwide market leader in medical film digitizers.

DosimetryPRO^® Advantage - Extraordinary Dose Accuracy

• Advanced radiation therapy treatments use the penumbral (beam edge) region, instead of just the flat part of the beam, to better treat tumor regions and to spare adjacent tissues.
• Use of the VIDAR DosimetryPRO Advantaged with 65,536 shades of gray, provides significantly more information in the penumbral regions. This means that dose levels to adjacent tissues can be more accurately measured. It also means that leaf leakage in MLC (Multi-Leaf Collimator) systems are easier to measure.
• Greater dose accuracy for complex fields used in IMRT (Intensity Modulation Radiation Therapy) and Dynamic Therapies results in greater confidence in the delivered dose. All of which translates to better outcomes for your patients.

Technology Advantage and Innovation

• The DosimetryPRO Advantage film digitizer delivers exceptional geometric accuracy, consistency and reliability, making it the ideal choice for radiation physicists.
• Incorporating the same advanced technology that is a hallmark of VIDAR’s family of film digitizers, the DosimetryPRO Advantage features VIDAR’s proprietary High Definition CCD (HD-CCD®) technology, ensuring clinically proven quality and unmatched value.
• The superior optical density range (0-4.00) and image resolution (44 micron) of the DosimetryPRO^® Advantage exceed the American College of Radiology practice guidelines for PACS and remote primary diagnosis.
• The DosimetryPRO^® Advantage digitizes films two times faster than previous models and can handle mixed-sized films, allowing for more productivity and greater efficiency - key benefits for radiology department personnel. Improved productivity also translates into greater revenues for radiology centers and departments.
• VIDAR's ADC™ (Automatic Digitizer Calibration) and the enhanced technology of the Advantage product platform ensure the highest level of consistency and repeatability in every image digitized.
• The DosimetryPRO^® Advantage requires virtually no routine maintenance and no daily cleaning. VIDAR's digitizers also achieve a mean time between failure of >=50,000 hours - the equivalent of nearly six years. For busy radiology departments, this highly reliable, maintenance-free performance translates into greater up-time, improved productivity, reduced operating costs, and increased revenue for users.
