Posted on 21 Dec 2005
Nucletron BV (Veenendall, The Netherlands) and Siemens Medical Solutions Oncology Care Systems Group (OCS; Erlangen, Germany) have announced a worldwide distribution agreement for Nucletron's Oncentra MasterPlan.

This agreement will provide Siemens customers with access to an advanced treatment planning system, directly through Siemens sales organization. "We are very excited about being able to offer the Oncentra MasterPlan software to a larger customer base, through our distribution agreement with Siemens OCS,” stated David Imperiali, managing director of Nucletron BV.

Ajit Singh, president of Siemens Oncology Care Systems, stated, "Oncentra MasterPlan is one of the most advanced treatment-planning systems on the market today. A suite of individual treatment-planning modules for external-beam radiotherapy, Oncentra MasterPlan has been designed with DICOM [digital imaging and communications in medicine] integration, connectivity, and flexibility in mind.”

Oncentra MasterPlan is part of Nucletron's range of Oncentra software system for oncology. It integrates completely into the Oncentra Information Management solution and consists of four modules. Oncentra Anatomy uses best-in-class tools for sophisticated contouring, segmentation, and multi-modality image registration and fusion. Oncentra Virtual Simulation provides high-quality image manipulation and advanced contouring tools, easy beam set-up, and real-time generated DRRs. Oncentra Optimizer provides users quick optimization through a very sophisticated algorithm. Oncentra Evaluation allows interactive dose-shaping for three-dimensional (3D) plan evaluation and generates dose volume histograms.
