Company News

Standard Imaging, a global leader in radiation therapy quality assurance (QA) solutions, unveiled its newest technologies at the 2025 ASTRO Meeting—including the debut of the QA BeamChecker Pro and major updates across its hardware and software portfolio. These innovations underscore the company’s commitment to precision, workflow efficiency, and seamless integration, equipping clinicians with smarter tools to deliver safer, more consistent patient care.

“ASTRO is the ultimate convergence of innovation and clinical practice in radiation oncology,” said Eric DeWerd, MBA, President of Standard Imaging. “This year’s releases demonstrate our commitment to giving clinicians the tools they need to elevate patient care—efficiently, accurately, and confidently.”

QA BeamChecker™ Pro- Quick QA for Confidence All Day

The QA BeamChecker™ Pro takes daily QA to the next level. With automatic energy detection, a software-free, cable-free design, and the largest touchscreen in its class, it delivers fast, reliable measurements for photons and electrons—so clinical staff can perform comprehensive daily QA quickly and confidently.

  • No More Flipping–Single setup to measure photon and electron energies.
  • Standalone Operation – Software-free and cable-free.
  • Daily QA in Seconds – The only patented Automatic Energy Detection on the market.
  • Next-Gen QA – Only and largest touchscreen front panel for quick setup and displayed results.

“The QA BeamChecker Pro builds on a legacy of trusted performance with smarter, more efficient technology,” said Andrea Zens, Product Manager at Standard Imaging. “Every detail—from automatic energy detection to the large touchscreen—was designed to make daily QA faster, easier, and more reliable.”

MAX Elite Electrometer – The Future of QA (Patent pending).

The MAX Elite Electrometer provides a foundational, future-ready platform for modern radiation therapy. Built for precision, flexibility, and integration, this electrometer delivers the accuracy required for dosimetric measurements.

  • Streamlined Setup, Maximum Efficiency – An intuitive interface makes measurements and adjustments seamless, reducing setup time and enhancing clinical workflow.
  • Precision at Your Fingertips – The largest capacitive touch screen in its class, delivering responsive, precise control.
  • Fast Responding – Fast-settling and fast-zeroing for quick, reliable data collection.
  • Flexibility Redefined – Remote operation capabilities and customizable viewing angles for maximum control.
  • Calibration Made Smarter – Integrated camera system for automated input of detector calibration information, eliminating manual data entry.

“With the MAX Elite, we wanted to build an electrometer that works as hard as the clinics do. It’s intuitive, flexible, and precise—giving physicists the tools they need for efficient and reliable QA today and in the future.” said Shannon Holmes, Ph.D., Medical Physicist at Standard Imaging.

Adaptivo™ Software – Your TPS’s smart trigger. Daily checks, flagged only when it matters.

Adaptivo’s in vivo EPID acts as a smart trigger for your TPS off-line adaptive workflow—automating daily checks and only flagging when action is needed. By continuously monitoring treatments, Adaptivo empowers clinicians to focus on what matters most: smarter evaluations, improved efficiency, and safer patient care. Now with powerful new features, including RayStation treatment planning support and expanded compatibility with Eclipse, ARIA/Mosaiq, and Varian Linacs.

“Adaptivo is built to fit into the way clinics already work. By adding RayStation support and strengthening integration with systems like Eclipse, ARIA/Mosaiq, and Varian Linacs, we’re giving physicists a smarter, more flexible way to manage in vivo QA,” said Vicky Howard, MS, MBA, DABR, Standard Imaging Product Manager and Support Physicist.

PIPSpro™ Software 5.9 – Rapid Daily QA for CT Simulation

PIPSpro® 5.9, paired with the CT/SIM Check Phantom, enables fast daily QA for CT simulators in under five minutes. Comprehensive data analysis ensures high-quality daily CT simulator QA without disrupting patient schedules.

"This update brings speed and precision to a critical step in radiation therapy planning," said Hugh Petersen, Product Manager at Standard Imaging. " Daily CT simulation QA can now be completed efficiently, allowing clinics to maintain quality while keeping patient care on track."

Together, these innovations highlight Standard Imaging’s mission to simplify and strengthen radiation therapy QA. By advancing hardware and software that work smarter and more seamlessly together, the company continues to empower clinicians worldwide to deliver safer, more precise, and more efficient patient care. These launches mark another step forward in Standard Imaging’s ongoing commitment to precision and progress—reaffirming its role as a leader in QA innovation and a trusted partner in advancing the science of radiation therapy.
