WIENER NEUSTADT, Áustria, SALZBURGO, Áustria e REUTLINGEN, Alemanha, 8 de maio 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Um sistema inovador para o posicionamento preciso do paciente foi o centro das atenções em seu lançamento no mercado em 2014. Agora, o primeiro desses sistemas foi autorizado no MedAustron, um centro austríaco para terapia de feixe, onde será utilizado clinicamente pela primeira vez. Os pacientes com câncer podem ser mais bem posicionados do que nunca e, assim, poderão receber radioterapia com precisão pontual.

Para garantir um tratamento bem-sucedido com feixe de íons – um tipo de radioterapia particularmente precisa e eficaz – é essencial posicionar o paciente com exatidão em relação ao feixe de radiação, observar constantemente e, caso seja necessário, ajustar a posição do paciente durante a sessão de tratamento.

O MedAustron será o primeiro centro de terapia de feixe de íons do mundo a utilizar sistemas médicos totalmente novos para esses casos: o sistema exacure da BEC GmbH (Reutlingen, Alemanha) e o Imaging Ring da medPhoton (Salzburgo, Áustria). Esses dois sistemas atendem a requisitos especiais da terapia de feixe de íons e garantem o mais alto nível de segurança ao paciente. Juntos, proporcionam tratamentos muito precisos e eficazes.

Um robô industrial personalizado, desenvolvido e adaptado para uso médico, é o centro do sistema exacure. Seu traço mais distintivo é a montagem no teto, que permite movimentos livres em sete ângulos diferentes. Além de poder ser posicionado em três dimensões e seis graus de liberdade de movimento, o robô também pode ser movido pelo teto, aproximando-se ou distanciando-se do bocal do feixe, para aumentar a flexibilidade do posicionamento do paciente. Outra vantagem do sistema montado no teto é o sistema de rastreamento óptico integrado: ele monitora a posição da maca de tratamento 500 vezes por segundo e realiza correções em tempo real, caso seja necessário, para garantir os melhores resultados com o tratamento.

O chamado sistema Imaging Ring (IRS) verifica a posição correta do paciente antes da radiação, para tratá-lo com a maior precisão possível. O IRS é integrado à maca do paciente e possibilita uma tomografia computadorizada (TC) de feixe em cone muito rápida e tridimensional. As imagens da TC são comparadas ao conjunto de imagens da TC utilizado para planejar o tratamento. As correções necessárias podem ser realizadas pelo robô exacure imediatamente. Esse procedimento garante que o tumor receba a radiação planejada pelos médicos. O IRS, que já recebeu vários prêmios de tecnologia, conta com um detector de tela plana e um tubo de raio-x, montados de forma que possam ser movidos de maneira independente. Assim, agora é possível alcançar uma velocidade de aquisição, um campo de visão e uma qualidade de imagem nunca antes alcançados; isso torna o IRS o padrão de ouro da terapia de partículas guiada por imagem.

"A combinação inédita desses novos sistemas no MedAustron oferece precisão, velocidade e qualidade de imagem exclusivas para a radioterapia, incomparável nas áreas de robótica e geração de imagens. Estamos muito orgulhosos por desenvolver essa solução tão inovadora, ao lado de nossos parceiros BEC e medPhoton, para estabelecer novos padrões das terapias de íons", afirmou o Dr. Bernd Mößlacher, diretor geral da MedAustron, após a aceitação exitosa dos sistemas.

"O envio de radiação precisa ao tumor, ao mesmo tempo em que o tecido saudável ao redor é poupado, é a melhor solução em tecnologias de posicionamento do paciente. A transferência de tecnologias de uso industrial para a robótica médica foi um fator-chave para desenvolver o sistema exacure. Queremos dar parabéns ao MedAustron por seu centro de tratamento único e inovador", afirmou Matthias Buck, diretor geral da BEC GmbH.

"Após anos de trabalho pioneiro no campo da radioterapia guiada por imagem, estamos muito felizes pelo fato de que os pacientes submetidos à terapia de feixe de íons também se beneficiarão do posicionamento controlado por robô, além da orientação exclusiva por imagem", afirmou Heinz Deutschmann, diretor geral da medPhoton GmbH.
