AVONDALE, Pa., Sept. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CQ Medical, the new global leader in patient radiotherapy positioning and healthcare innovations that advance human care, will unveil its enhanced product range and feature in-booth demonstrations during the 66^th ASTRO Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., September 29 – October 1.

CQ Medical marks a pivotal transformation for CIVCO Radiotherapy and Qfix, who joined forces in October 2022. CQ Medical is derived from the company's Care Quotient: IQ + EQ = CQ. It follows their philosophy of applying intelligence and empathy to everything they make and do.

The company encourages attendees to visit booth #927 to see how two legacy companies are integrating their market-leading solutions, uniquely combining medical technology with patient empathy, to help achieve better patient outcomes.

SBRT Immobilization Solutions, including the new Body Pro-Lok ONEBridge™ compatible with Alta™
CQ has combined two best-in-class products to create one remarkable SBRT positioning solution. The market-leading ONEBridge fits most patients, immobilizing and improving positioning and respiratory restriction for more accurate treatment. Current Alta Multipurpose Device users can upgrade their respiratory compression systems with the Body Pro-Lok ONEBridge.

Symphony^® Imaging, Treatment & Transfer Solutions
Symphony solutions facilitate smooth patient transfers between imaging modalities and treatment or procedure platforms without repositioning the patient. Visit the company to learn about their innovations with the Lithotomy AirShuttle™ for brachytherapy and the Alta AirShuttle for Adaptive customized cancer care workflow solutions.

BrachyGel™ Vaginal Hydrogel Packing Solution
Introducing BrachyGel, a personalized packing solution for image-guided brachytherapy and the first of its kind. BrachyGel provides proven stability of brachytherapy applicators through treatment planning and delivery. Unlike gauze or a saline-filled balloon, it contours to the patient's anatomy and reduces air gaps.

SRS Immobilization Solutions
The Encompass™ and Solstice™ SRS Immobilization Systems are highly advanced, non-invasive solutions designed for precisely targeted brain, head, and neck treatments. The Encompass is validated for HyperArc™ and provides setup confidence and comfort with the Integrated Shim™ system. Solstice features unique variable pitch capability, increasing setup and treatment flexibility.

BioXmark^® Liquid Fiducial Marker
The liquid nature of BioXmark enables the implantation of multiple markers of varying sizes in the same uninterrupted procedure. Sticky and soft markers adapt to surrounding tissue*, providing exceptional positional stability and visibility.

Proton Solutions, including the new kVue™ Pronumbra™ Head & Neck Immobilization System
CQ has set a standard in proton therapy solutions with a range of market-leading couchtops, head & neck immobilization, and additional disease site positioning solutions, including a complete pediatric offering. As the creators of the original BoS^® proton system, the company has reimagined the solution with a new device, Pronumbra, incorporating top-of-the-line features that enhance the experience for physicists, therapists, and patients from start to finish.
