What does Compu former® do?
Compu former® is proven to help deliver uniform radiation dosage over an entire treatment area. It produces a mold used to create a compensator filter that provides radiation beam attenuation to compensate for inhomogeneity. A menu-driven program interfaces with treatment planning systems for quick, accurate beam compensation. Changes for reduction ratio and treatment geometry are programmed into the procedure. The beam compensator filter mold is cut from a foam block using a highly accurate CNC milling machine. Milling can be done remotely and at any time.
