- System Interoperability: The Radixact-X9 relies on the iDMS® Data Management System, which acts as a centralized middleware hub. It communicates via standardized DICOM-RT and HL7 protocols with Sunway Medical Centre's Oncology Information System (OIS), Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), and broader Hospital Information System (HIS).- - Data Storage and Redundancy: Patient plans, treatment fraction delivery records, daily setup verification scans, and beam telemetry logs are vaulted within an enterprise-grade storage server featuring RAID arrays, automatic data mirroring, and disaster-recovery features compliant with medical data retention regulations.- Core IT Functionalities: Programming, Calculating, and Enhancing1. Programming (Inverse Treatment Planning): Clinical medical physicists at Sunway Medical Centre program complex delivery parameters into the system by defining mathematical objective functions (e.g., target tumor dose limits and strict threshold constraints for nearby healthy organs). The TPS translates these parameters into machine control instructions: gantry speed, couch translation velocity, and individual MLC leaf-opening times.2. 3. Calculating (Dose Aggregation and Margin Verification): The processing unit calculates 3D dose distributions across heterogeneous anatomical structures. During ongoing treatment courses, the system automatically calculates cumulative delivered doses over multiple fractions, identifying if target volumes are underdosed or adjacent normal tissues overdosed due to anatomical variations.4. 5. Enhancing (Dose Sculpting and Adaptive Resection): Through TomoEDGE™ dynamic jaws, the system sharpens dose fall-off at longitudinal beam edges, eliminating radiation scatter to adjacent tissues. Furthermore, PreciseART® continuously enhances treatment quality by automating daily re-contouring and alerting radiation oncologists when a plan needs re-optimization to account for anatomical changes.6. Significance to Sunway Medical Centre's OperationsThe integration of the Radixact-X9 plays a critical role in the operational throughput, clinical capability, and strategic positioning of Sunway Medical Centre: - Operational Throughput and Clinical Efficiency: With an upgraded beam output of 1,000 MU/min and continuous helical delivery, the Radixact-X9 reduces treatment fraction times compared to older-generation systems. This rapid delivery cycle enables Sunway Cancer Centre to treat more patients per day while minimizing motion errors caused by patient fatigue on the couch.- - Capacity for Complex, Extended-Field Cases: Conventional Linac gantries are constrained by smaller field sizes (typically 40 cm), requiring complex manual field matching and patient repositioning. The Radixact-X9 provides a seamless, junction-free treatment length of up to 135 cm, enabling single-setup treatments for challenging conditions such as craniospinal irradiation (CSI), total marrow irradiation (TMI), and diffuse metastatic lesions.- - Reduction of Treatment Toxicity and Clinical Safety: Daily adaptive re-imaging and real-time motion compensation ensure tight margins around tumors. Sparing critical structures—such as salivary glands in nasopharyngeal carcinoma or the heart and lungs in thoracic cancers—reduces post-treatment complications, shortens hospital stays, and lowers overall management costs.- - Institutional Reputation and Market Leadership: As a major quaternary private healthcare institution and medical tourism hub in Southeast Asia, Sunway Medical Centre leverages the Radixact-X9 alongside platforms like the Varian TrueBeam and Leksell Gamma Knife to offer comprehensive, specialized cancer care. This advanced technology attracts regional patient referrals seeking precise, organ-preserving radiation therapy.- References- Accuray Incorporated. (2020).
