Give your patients simple and clear feedback on their breathing with the Real Time Coach display.
Easily positioned in the patient’s field of view, the display gives them real-time feedback on their breathing. This can help patients participate in their own treatment, ease their positioning, and help deliver an effective breath-hold for accurate, reproducible therapy.
With the intuitive display, patients can see exactly when they move into tolerance. With AlignRT, the radiation beam can be paused and enabled based on this movement.
Wireless – designed to reduce trip hazards
Non-contact – for patient comfort and reduced cleaning
Positionable – for ease of patient use
AlignRT with Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH)
Radiotherapy has been shown to cause volume-dependent cardiac perfusion defects in 27% of patients within 6 months¹.
During a study at the University of North Carolina, 20 patients were treated using AlignRT for DIBH. 0% of these have exhibited cardiac perfusion defects in SPECT images acquired 6 months after treatment².
