Product catalog summary
Introduction to HybridArc™ Radiosurgery
HybridArc™ combines modulated dynamic conformal arcs and discrete IMRT technology for radiosurgery, offering automated and optimized blending for efficient treatment planning.

Expanded Capabilities
Part of the iPlan® software family, HybridArc facilitates rotational volumetric dose shaping and simplifies treatment planning for both advanced and traditional linear accelerators. It supports zero-downtime installation and flexible licensing, enabling multiple linacs to perform optimized volumetric arc therapies.

Dual Stage Optimization
This feature enhances target dose homogeneity and protects at-risk organs through arc and beam fluence optimization. It integrates dose-constraint penalization and automated leaf sequencing, allowing for optimized coplanar and non-coplanar arc dose delivery. The system automates the selection of arc quantity and length, as well as IMRT beam quantity.

Clinical Possibilities
HybridArc is designed for accurate dose calculations in small fields and is optimized for treatments in one-to-five fractions. It maximizes target dose conformity while minimizing normal tissue exposure, utilizing the DPL algorithm for fast optimization of arc components and IMRT fluences.

Clinical Outlook
Experts have noted improved conformity with HybridArc over traditional IMRT and dynamic arc plans. The system's dosimetric accuracy has been praised, particularly when tested with Monte Carlo simulations, and it allows for fast integration of optimized dynamic conformal arcs and IMRT, resulting in superior dosimetry.

Conclusion
HybridArc™ offers significant advancements in radiosurgery treatment planning, providing enhanced precision and efficiency in dose delivery.
