Pinnacle3 planning system

Manufactured by Philips
Visit Supplier
Sourced in United States

The Pinnacle3 planning system is a medical imaging software solution developed by Philips. It is designed to assist healthcare professionals in the planning and visualization of radiation therapy treatments. The Pinnacle3 system provides tools for the delineation of target volumes and organs at risk, as well as the optimization of radiation beam parameters to deliver effective treatment while minimizing the impact on healthy tissues.

Pinnacle3 vs. LP-based IMRT Planning

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two types of IMRT plans were generated for each patient. The first was generated using the Pinnacle3 planning system (Philips Healthcare; Fitchburg, WI, USA). The second was generated using our linear programming (LP)-based approach.[25 (link)] Although IMRT plans were also generated using the Eclipse planning system (Varian Medical Systems; Palo Alto, CA, USA), both planning systems resulted in comparable IMRT plans. We describe the planning specifics and results for only the Pinnacle3 planning system in this report.

VMAT and HT for Conformal Radiotherapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
VMAT or HT was planned with the aim of accomplishing better homogeneity and conformity of target coverage while sparing adjacent normal organs to minimize exposure to the heart and other organs at risk. A dose-volume histogram was used to evaluate the dose constraints of the target volumes and other organs at risk. The criteria were at least 100% of the CTV was to receive 100% of the prescribed dose, at least 95% of the PTV was to receive 95–100% of the prescribed dose, and the maximal dose to the PTV region should be less than 110% of the prescribed dose. The constraints to the heart were a mean heart dose < 20 Gy, and V25 < 10%. A Pinnacle3 planning system (version 9.8.1, Philips Medical Systems, Madison, WI, USA) was used to plan VMAT, which was delivered by using a linear accelerator machine (Versa HDTM, Elekta, Crawley, West Sussex, UK). A tomotherapy Hi Art Planning system (version 5.1.3, Tomotherapy, Inc., Madison, WI, USA) was used to plan HT, which was delivered by using a Tomotherapy® Hi-Art or HD system (Tomotherapy®; Accuray Inc., Madison, WI, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
