We’re excited to announce that Oita Prefectural Hospital, Japan, has officially gone live with AlignRT!

This milestone reflects their commitment to precision, innovation, and delivering the highest standard of patient care.

Exciting new study evaluating SGRT in pediatric radiotherapy reports:

• 11% reduction in mean PTV
• Reduction of PTV margins
• Significantly improved setup accuracy
• Continuous intra-fraction monitoring

Thank you to everyone who attended the SGRT US meeting in Orlando last week.

Two days of clinicians sharing real experiences across simulation, treatment, proton therapy, dose visualization, and beyond. Already looking forward to next year in Nashville! 🎸

Benjamin Ziemer from @ChildrensLA presented a fascinating case study on MapRT and non-coplanar beam delivery for spatially fractionated radiation therapy.

By carefully optimising non-coplanar beam selection, the team achieved superior SFRT dosimetric ratios and lower OAR doses.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Day 2 kicked off with a timely session from Sally Eggleston of Radiation Business Solutions.

Under the 2026 Final Rules, active motion management is now part of higher-complexity treatment codes, a real opportunity for SGRT adoption.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Alisha Chlebik from @ChildrensLA made a strong case for MapRT.

A key highlight was how the team eliminated the need for physical dry runs and opened the door to more complex non-coplanar treatments, all with a negligible impact on therapist workflow.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Josh Naylor from @UHD_NHS presented early clinical results for Beam Guide, one of the recent developments in SGRT.

By projecting a real-time visualization of planned radiation fields directly onto the patient during setup, teams can verify alignment and catch potential errors.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Gantry-induced camera occlusion is one of the real challenges in proton therapy and Mindy Joo and Lei Hu from @InovaHealth showed how extended ROIs offer a reliable solution, with strong intra- and inter-fractional stability and reproducibility.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Dr. Andy Chen from Texas Oncology highlighted how Postural Video has become a core part of their SGRT workflow — reducing time in position and improving setup efficiency, particularly for breast and head & neck patients.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Great to see clinicians from around the world coming together in Orlando for Day 1 of the SGRT US 2026!

Kicking off two full days of learning, collaboration, and innovation, featuring expert-led sessions, real-world clinical insights, and hands-on exploration of SGRT.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

We’re excited to share our Video of the Month, “Potential Unlocked: Early Experiences of AlignRT® Version 8.”

Dr. Elizabeth Brown, Assistant Director of Radiation Therapy at Princess Alexandra Hospital shares insights into AlignRT® v8.

AlignRT is now live on an Elekta Harmony system at Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in Louisiana.

This milestone marks the first AlignRT/Harmony installation in the country and reflects a continued commitment to innovation and patient-focused treatment.

[SGRT Community @SGRTCommunity]

Just 7 days until we enter A Whole New World of SGRT!

Next week, professionals from across the country will come together in Orlando to share insights, experiences, and the future of SGRT.
