Middleton, WI--Standard Imaging, a leader in medical equipment innovation, announces the release of the LUCY™ ThorX Phantom for SBRT End-to-End QA. Designed to empower radiotherapy teams with unparalleled accuracy and efficiency, it streamlines the evaluation of the entire radiotherapy treatment process—from simulation and treatment planning to imaging and delivery QA.

“The LUCY ThorX represents a significant advancement in SBRT QA,” said Eric DeWerd, MBA, Standard Imaging President. “This solution addresses the evolving needs of physicists and clinicians, providing them with a comprehensive and efficient tool to improve treatment precision while reducing workflow complexity.”

Precision-Driven QA for SBRT

Designed to meet the rigorous standards set forth by IAEA TRS 430, TECDOC-1583, AAPM Task Groups and MPPG guidelines, the LUCY ThorX facilitates thorough evaluation across multiple treatment stages. Its pseudo-anthropomorphic thorax design features ribs, vertebrae, spinal cord, lung, and kidney structures to provide realistic simulation scenarios for precise dose verification.

“Physicists want to improve efficiency and reduce the number of phantoms they are using for routine QA,” said Umar Baharom, Standard Imaging Product Manager. “The LUCY ThorX is a unique all-in-one phantom to perform key QA tasks for both CT simulator and linac from image quality monitoring to more complex periodic SBRT QA”

The LUCY ThorX comprises of four primary sections which contain embedded fiducials and objects that are simple to use for imaging QA. It allows the measurement of dose using ion chambers and film with four detector cavities in embedded targets for Multiple Met SBRT QA. For SBRT QA, the LUCY ThorX has two film inserts and it also accepts a variety of detectors using interchangeable plugs.
