HeroSupport revolutionizes patient immobilization in radiation therapy, especially for breast cancer. Unlike traditional methods, we provide custom fit "shells" for precise patient positioning during treatment in the difficult prone position. What sets us apart is our integrated approach: we utilize our proprietary imaging table, on which the patient lays, to acquire highly accurate patient data, using transparent shaping elements and surface scanning. Our software creates models and we 3D-print the VENUS SHELL"
Think of it like making personalized ski boots: you need to capture the foot's true, weight-bearing shape by scanning it from below through a transparent surface. A non-weight-bearing image simply wouldn't provide the precision required for a perfect fit.
Next goal, CE marking.
