Innovations

IBA is developing a new delivery technique called DynamicARC^® proton therapy. It allows dynamic irradiation while the gantry is rotating, with the advantages of both Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) and Bragg Peak but without the exit dose.

DynamicARC^® Proton Therapy is being developed with the aim to deliver faster, easier and potentially sharper proton therapy treatments.

FLASH is a key research area that may dramatically improve the clinical relevance of proton therapy for patients around the world. IBA is very well positioned to drive the development of FLASH irradiation, the next major innovation expected in radiation therapy.

IBA is investing heavily in developing a novel technique using the Bragg peak called ConformalFLASH^®. IBA’s strategy to take FLASH today from research to a clinical version of ConformalFLASH^® will take into consideration the radiobiology, clinical safety, and future streamlined workflow for FLASH.

Treating moving targets with confidence has always been a challenge and kept patients who needed proton therapy away from it.

IBA has worked toward an integrated solution to treat those patients with more confidence by providing features that enhance the treatment workflow.
