The Optivus Proton Beam Therapy System (PBTS) is an integrated facility designed to administer proton radiation treatments to patients through delivery of a predetermined radiation dose to a predetermined treatment target volume in a manner that protects people from unnecessary exposure to radiation and other hazards.
Device Story
Integrated facility for proton radiation therapy; delivers predetermined radiation dose to target volume. System components: 70-250 MeV proton synchrotron; beam transport system; fixed beam delivery systems; isocentric gantries; patient positioning system; integrated facility control and safety systems. Operated by clinical staff in a specialized facility. System accelerates protons via synchrotron; transports beam to treatment rooms; directs beam to patient target. Integrated control and safety systems manage dose delivery and radiation protection. Output is a controlled proton beam for therapeutic radiation. Benefits include precise dose delivery to target volume while minimizing unnecessary radiation exposure.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on technological comparison to the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
Facility-based proton radiation therapy system. Components: 70-250 MeV proton synchrotron, beam transport system, isocentric gantries, fixed beam delivery, patient positioning system. Proton source: 40 keV duoplasmatron. Injector: Radio Frequency Quadrupole. Energy range: 70-250 MeV (3-38 cm water depth). Beam intensity: 1x10^9 to 3x10^10 protons per pulse. Integrated facility control and safety systems. Standalone facility infrastructure.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring proton radiation therapy for the delivery of a predetermined radiation dose to a target volume.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.

The Optivus Proton Beam Therapy System (PBTS) is an integrated facility designed to deliver radiation treatment. Optivus' proposed facility is essentially the same as the facility that is currently operating at LLUMC. Both facilities consists of three major functional blocks; the accelerator, the beam transport system, and the This complete, turnkey system consists of seven major treatment rooms. subsystems:
- 70 - 250 MeV proton synchrotron;
- beam transport system;
- . one or more fixed beam delivery systems;
- . one or more isocentric gantries;
- patient positioning system;
- integrated facility control system; and .
- integrated facility safety system.
#### INTENDED USE ട.
The Optivus Proton Beam Therapy System (PBTS) is an integrated facility designed to administer proton radiation treatments to patients through delivery of a predetermined radiation dose to a predetermined treatment target volume in a manner that protects people from unnecessary exposure to radiation and other hazards. This is the same intended use as the LLUMC PBTS.
