Life sciences firm Elekta signs agreement with Toronto spin-out Acumyn for its quality management system.
Life sciences company Elekta has entered into a commercialisation agreement with Acumyn, a spin-out of Toronto’s University Hospital Network, for the firm’s quality management system Aqua.
Elekta, which provides treatment planning services in oncology and neurosurgery, plans to pilot Aqua, which offers integrated analysis services for radiotherapy clinics, across a handful of sites before fully adding it to its commercial line-up.
Dee Mathieson, senior vice president of Oncology Business Line Management at Elekta says: “AQUA fills a big gap that customers have today. A linear accelerator and associated devices need to be calibrated and maintained on a regular basis. AQUA provides a software link between all the disparate systems and manages the workload, scheduling and reporting of routine QA tasks.”
