Libra 1
Multimodal overlay for radiotherapy planning MRI/CT/PET
Product Code: STMR-01
Product Information
The new Libra range of Medibord overlays for radiotherapy planning, baseplates and accessories are manufactured from a new patent pending multimodal composite that delivers equivalent imaging and strength properties to existing materials used in X-ray and MRI radiotherapy planning but works across all modalities.
Medibord has developed this new composite called Lucide™ to specifically address radio-translucency for treatment and X-Ray imaging, low electrical conductivity for MRI and maximal homogeneity to aid automated image co-registration.
Providing excellent performance across all modalities, this exciting new material offers an excellent choice for auxiliary boards where the hardware can be identical across all imaging and treatment systems. They are custom engineered to securely locate and remove from the cradle or existing couch-top of your system with ease.

As cancer treatments are becoming increasingly advanced, there is a growing demand for treatment plans to be based upon images from more than one imaging modality.
There is strong clinical need for a class of materials compatible with all common medical imaging modalities including Magnetic Resonance Imaging and X-Ray Computed Tomography which provide minimum attenuation to high intensity X-Ray photons used in Radiotherapy treatment, to improve patient outcomes and recovery times.
The Libra™ range baseplates are manufactured from a new patent pending multimodal composite that delivers equivalent imaging and strength properties to existing materials used in X-ray and MRI radiotherapy planning but works across all modalities. Medibord has developed this new composite called Lucide™ to specifically address radio-translucency for treatment and X-Ray imaging, low electrical conductivity for MRI and maximal homogeneity to aid automated image co-registration.
Providing excellent performance across all modalities, delivering a great choice for auxiliary boards where the hardware can be identical across all imaging and treatment systems. They are custom engineered to securely locate and remove from the cradle or existing couch-top of your system with ease.
Physical Features
| Minimal visibility on CT: aluminium equivalent of 330μm | High homogeneity for megavoltage imaging |
| Minimal attenuation of radiotherapy beams: 1.2% vs 1.7% for carbon fibre at same thickness | No measurable conductivity for safe, artefact free MRI |
