Absolutely Rad

Radiation Therapy Alignment Trainer

Alignment practice that feels approachable, practical, and easy to start.

The best time to learn to align a patient, isn't when a patient is uncomfortably laying on a hard metal table.

Absolutely Rad is a local desktop trainer that helps make X-ray and cone beam alignment practice more repeatable, supportive, and available to individual learners without the pressure of a clinical environment.

Why It Exists Alignment training often depends on shadowing, static materials, or expensive simulation systems. Training should be easier to access, easier to repeat, and easier to fit into real life.

What It Supports CT-derived training cases, X-ray and cone beam workflows, offline local desktop use, and structured repetition-based practice to build alignment confidence.

Training Features That Support Real Practice

Build alignment skills through interactive workflows, scored feedback, and multiple viewing modes designed for CT-based training cases.

Gamified Scoring System

Practice gets immediate, structured feedback. The scoring system gamifies alignment accuracy by calculating your offset in millimeters across all axes (vertical, longitudinal, and lateral). Each alignment attempt shows you exactly how far off you were, building spatial awareness through repetition. The closer you get to zero offset, the better your score—turning precision into an achievable, measurable goal. Color-coded feedback and progress tracking help you see improvement over time and identify which alignment axes need more attention.

X-ray View Mode

Train with digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) derived from CT data. The X-ray view mode presents orthogonal 2D projections that simulate real treatment imaging workflows. Toggle between anterior-posterior (AP) and lateral views to build the mental model needed for clinical alignment. Adjust contrast, window level, and transparency to match your facility's imaging preferences and practice interpreting anatomical landmarks across different visualization settings.

Cone Beam CT View Mode

Explore volumetric alignment workflows with simulated cone beam CT imaging. This view mode provides tri-planar slice navigation (axial, sagittal, and coronal) to support 3D spatial reasoning and alignment decision-making. Scroll through reconstructed slices, compare reference anatomy to current positioning, and practice the same visual assessment patterns used during daily treatment setup. Windowing controls let you optimize soft tissue, bone, or lung visualization depending on the training case.
