Vision RT Introduces AlignRT® Core, a Flexible Approach to SGRT Adoption

Vision RT is pleased to announce the launch of AlignRT® Core, a new product designed to make Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) more accessible to clinics worldwide.

AlignRT Core provides a flexible entry point for clinics looking to adopt SGRT without compromising the high standards of accuracy, safety, and reliability associated with  AlignRT. The flagship AlignRT platform uses the latest Horizon cameras, advanced configurations, and includes multiple productivity and patient-experience-enhancing software modules, whereas AlignRT Core uses earlier-generation HD cameras and value-engineered software. Both enable clinics to integrate active motion management into their workflows, supporting precise radiation therapy delivery and improved patient safety.

A Tiered Approach to SGRT Adoption:

AlignRT (Premium, Flagship Platform)

• Latest Horizon camera technology
• Advanced system configurations
• Suite of productivity and patient-experience enhancements
• Enhanced automation and workflow optimisation

AlignRT Core (Flexible, Entry-Level System)

• Uses earlier-generation HD cameras
• Includes essential, value‑engineered software
• Provides a flexible, cost‑effective entry point into SGRT
• Maintains the high standards of accuracy, safety, and reliability associated with AlignRT

AlignRT Core includes the three-camera configuration vital to delivering the same patient-centered precision as our flagship AlignRT. Core features include reporting,  couch-move vector output, and  hospital-policy-integrated sign-on, for efficient workflows, rapid quality assurance, and compliant operation.

AlignRT Core also offers future flexibility. As clinical requirements evolve, centres can expand their capabilities by adding software modules within the AlignRT platform, enabling a scalable approach to SGRT adoption.

“AlignRT Core represents an important step in expanding access to surface guided radiation therapy,” said Dr Norman Smith, CEO. “By introducing a tiered approach, with both an entry-level and premium solution, clinics can adopt SGRT in a way that fits their needs today, while benefiting from the proven accuracy, safety, and scalability of the AlignRT platform.”

A Proven Foundation for SGRT

For more than 25 years, Vision RT has supported cancer centers with advanced surface imaging technology. Today, more than 3,000 AlignRT systems are in active clinical use worldwide,  including 24 of the 25 top-ranked U.S. cancer hospitals*. AlignRT is supported by extensive clinical validation across more than 300 peer-reviewed publications.

AlignRT systems are fully interoperable with all major linear accelerator vendors, regardless of machine age, enabling standardisation across multi-vendor environments. The platform delivers active motion management for every patient, with reliable performance across all skin tones, and is supported by a dedicated SGRT service organisation targeting continuous system uptime.

With the introduction of AlignRT Core, Vision RT continues its mission to make radiation therapy more effective for every cancer patient.
