Mevion showcased its new HYPERSCAN with Adaptive Aperture technology for intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT). It delivers a pencil beam that is up to 50 times faster and three times sharper than conventional systems and can scan a lung tumor in less than two seconds.

The technology includes a low-profile micro-multileaf collimator (mMLC) system that can deliver the sharpest penumbra with protons, without requiring manual apertures and adjustments. That helps to reduce dose uncertainty at the target edges and unnecessary dose to healthy tissue.
