Simplicit90Y enables physicians to quickly embrace TheraSphere personalized dosimetry and effectively advance clinical practices with dedicated tools and features.
Design details
Simplicit90Y is a comprehensive software solution for dosimetry planning, allowing you to:
Enhance consistency and efficiency
Simplicit90Y allows you to easily incorporate multimodal images with a range of high-performance registration tools, all with one common interface. Coupled with automated and semi-automated tools for segmentation, this reduces inter-user variability and improves dosimetry consistency and planning confidence.
Analyze with ease
Manipulate your data and expedite analysis with tools for the following:
- Image-based (2D, 3D) dosimetry assessment
- Rapid LSF calculation
- Advanced image registration quality control tools
Confirm Y-90 treatment quality
Simplicit90Y provides the capability to visualize prospective dose distribution and assess the absorbed dose delivered to structures of interest. By allowing for pre- and post-treatment dosimetry, this software can help determine the effectiveness of a patient’s Y-90 SIRT with confidence.
Personalize dosimetry
Simplicit90Y can be used to interactively tailor the absorbed dose per perfused volume by adjusting the injected activity. The software tools can be customized to a patient’s specific tumor presentation and anatomy.
