Proton therapy developer Mevion Medical Systems and radiation therapy firm RaySearch Laboratories are teaming up to develop treatment planning technology for Mevion's S250 proton therapy system.
The partnership will focus on validating the use of RaySearch's RayStation treatment planning system with Mevion's work-in-progress HyperScan pencil-beam scanning technology, along with developing advanced planning techniques to take advantage of HyperScan's delivery capabilities, according to the companies. RayStation already supports S250's current configuration, Mevion and RaySearch said.
