Clinical Benefits

High precision 
Millimeter IGRT Precision

ExacTrac® consistently provides millimeter-accurate target volume setup through imaging of internal structures or implanted markers. The high level of accuracy results from an advanced BrainLAB 6D image registration algorithm.

Optional implanted fiducials further ensure superior IGRT setup accuracy compared to use of soft tissue data for patient setup.

Two-minute patient setup

ExacTrac delivers streamlined patient setup in just two minutes. X-ray IGRT images are verified automatically and patient setup—including rotational corrections—is adjusted in a flash, keeping your workflow and throughput on track.

Treatment spectrum 
Unlimited treatment options

ExacTrac transforms your linac into a highly versatile system, simply by adding IGRT. With ExacTrac, you have the power to treat more indications, more effectively, opening the door to limitless possibilities for your practice.

Robotic Couch 
Robotics 6D patient setup

The ExacTrac® remote couch provides the basis for fast, automatic
patient setup and the ExacTrac Robotics couch module automatically
corrects rotational setup errors, offering further setup efficiency.

ExacTrac Robotics also enables patient setup accuracy for stereotactic and IMRT cases, where tumors are in close proximity to critical structures.

  • Improved setup accuracy
  • Ideal for head & neck (H&N), spine, prostate and other
    SBRT/IMRT cases
  • Improved setup speed for optimal patient throughput
  • Superior image quality with carbon fiber Imaging Couch Top

Frameless treatment 
Frameless radiosurgery

ExacTrac Frameless Radiosurgery, in combination with ExacTrac Robotics, offers highly accurate delivery of single fraction treatment without a conventional, invasive headring.

A patient-friendly head-to-shoulder mask facilitates a streamlined workflow,
overcoming the restrictions of frame-based radiosurgery and
improving scheduling flexibility for imaging, planning and treatment.

  • Single fraction radiosurgery and SRT for cranial and
    H&N cases supported with iPlan® stereotactic planning
  • Stereotactic millimeter precision with patient’s skull serving as
    localization geometry
  • Stereotactic immobilization with three-piece, non-invasive mask

Snap Verification 
Snap Verification

ExacTrac® Snap Verification software uses x-ray images acquired during treatment delivery or between fields to instantly detect and visualize internal tumor displacement.

A threshold-based margin analysis algorithm indicates whether patient setup correction is recommended or not. ExacTrac automatic couch control can then be used to realign the patient remotely.
