Body Pro-Lok ONE™ SBRT Immobilization |
| The new Body Pro-Lok ONE SBRT Immobilization system allows for customized setups utilizing ONE bridge versus three for varying patient sizes. This advanced design features lateral and tilting offset and variable height adjustment that expands and contracts to better accommodate varying body types and enhances clearance of gantry. The bridge secures directly to the Universal Couchtop™, thus eliminating the need for overlays and ensuring equivalent setups between CT and treatment. |

Protura Robotic Patient Positioning System |
| Protura software now provides an interface solution for Varian users with MOSAIQ Record and Verify systems. The new interface automatically opens patient information in Protura software when the patient is opened in MOSAIQ, and automatically loads patient shift data to match Varian's On-Board Imager (OBI) kV imaging system. Protura remotely repositions patients with robotic 6 degrees of freedom giving users the ability to ensure sub-millimeter positioning accuracy from outside the treatment room. Combined with CIVCO's comprehensive motion management solutions, Protura is optimized to handle the rigors of a busy clinic while improving efficiency and throughput. The Protura and Varian software interface will be demonstrated in the CIVCO booth throughout the meeting. |

Universal Couchtop™ Long Extension |
| Several new additions have been released to the Universal Couchtop Long Extension (UCT LE) family including Kevlar, Grid and Embedded Wires solutions. The UCT LE provides seamless imaging and treatment planning with dosimetrically matched couchtops that feature a large, junction-free & artifact-free treatment area. The unique profile of the UCT LE allows CIVCO's Body Pro-Lok ONE bridge to attach directly to the couchtop, enabling a seamlessly integrated SBRT immobilization platform. |

trUpoint ARCH™ SRS/SRT System |
| trUpoint ARCH has received US FDA 510(k) clearance for MR environments, making it the only option for centers using MR simulation for SRS/SRT cases. trUpoint ARCH improves the patient's experience with a non-invasive, accurate, repeatable and comfortable hold, with less than 1 mm of patient movement during intrafraction immobilization testing. |
