New Hampshire Patent of the Month – December 2023

DoseOptics LLC, a radiotherapy technology company, has brought forth a novel perspective on the integration of imaging and dosimetry. Delivered as the Cherenkov imaging system, the technology delivers greater precision in radiation therapy.

The technology merges imaging capabilities with precise dosage delivery, marking a significant stride in enhancing the efficacy of radiation-based treatments. Traditionally, radiation therapy has been a meticulous balance between delivering an adequate dose to target cancerous cells while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. DoseOptics addresses this challenge with a solution that could revolutionize how we administer and monitor radiation treatments.

The integration of imaging into dosimetry is a promising approach, as it allows for real-time visualization of the radiation dose distribution within the body. This could lead to a more dynamic and adaptive form of treatment, where adjustments are made on the fly based on the immediate feedback provided by the imaging component. Such a capability holds the potential to significantly improve the precision and safety of radiation therapy, offering a personalized treatment experience for each patient.

The patent signals a move towards a more comprehensive understanding of the interplay between radiation and the human body. By combining imaging and dosimetry, healthcare professionals may gain valuable insights into how different tissues respond to radiation, enabling them to tailor treatment plans with a higher degree of accuracy.
