Complex radiosurgery and radiotherapy treatment scenarios - when critical organs are located adjacent to treatment targets - require precise and individualized dose calculations that irradiate the target while sparing healthy organs.
Brainlab® IMRT optimization delivers fast and highly conformal delivery options based on years of radiosurgery experience and intelligent integration.
- High precision 3D conformal dose delivery for cranial and extra-cranial stereotactic targets
- iPlan® composite planning capabilities and software automation offer the best of multiple dose calculation methods
- Combined with Brainlab ExacTrac®, the clinical advantages of IMRT can support dose escalation and enhanced clinical outcomes
IMRT Algorithm offers Fast IMRT Inverse Planning

Head & Neck IMRT treatment with dose overlay | The Dynamically Penalized Likelihood (DPL) inverse planning algorithm excels through its accuracy, robustness and speed, and is proven as one of the fastest and most precise calculation algorithms for inverse planning in the industry. It enables dose not possible with conventional treatment planning techniques
- Dose delivery optimization by modulating the intensity of the single fields
- Delivers extremely conformal 3D dose distributions and maximum sparing of at-risk organs

Advanced Planning Possibilities
IMRS/IMRT is particularly suited for targets that are next to or wrapped around organs, and is often the only way to tailor the dose to the target's shape while minimizing radiation to nearby organs. As a result, it shows clear advantages over conventional conformal techniques.
- Multiple result IMRS/IMRT simultaneously optimizes four treatment plans with different PTV and OAR weightings within seconds
- Offers both dynamic or Step & Shoot delivery with integrated leaf-motion optimization
- Advanced contour overlap handling minimizes time spent on object manipulation and plan preparation
- High-quality IMRT plan results, including leaf sequencing, offer enhanced dose integrity
