How it works 

SpaceOAR Vue Hydrogel, the next-generation hydrogel perirectal spacer is designed to offer enhanced visibility on CT. Due to the close proximity between the rectum and the prostate, radiation therapy can unintentionally cause rectal toxicity. SpaceOAR Vue Hydrogel is designed to help reduce the radiation delivered to the rectum during treatment.1​​
​

Why choose SpaceOAR Vue Hydrogel

The radiopacity is designed to improve the contouring accuracy during treatment plan creation, when compared to SpaceOAR Hydrogel.1

without spaceOAR
Reducing the need for a post-implant MRI may reduce the overall treatment costs per patient and the hospital staff’s time spent in obtaining reimbursement authorization1
rectum with spaceoar
The visibility of SpaceOAR Vue Hydrogel on a CT scan is designed to help reduce under- or over-contouring of the prostate and rectum for improved accuracy (when compared to SpaceOAR Hydrogel) and potentially more precise treatment planning1
rectum with radiation
Radiopacity may provide a suitable imaging option to MRI for patients with implanted metallic devices1

Benefits

Optimize dosing plan

Visibility of the gel on a CT scan designed to help to reduce under- or  over-contouring of the prostate and rectum for improved accuracy, as compared to SpaceOAR Hydrogel, and helps optimize treatment planning.1,2

streamline icon

Streamline workflow

Treatment planning can be done using CT only, reducing the need to acquire, reference and fuse MR and CT images to aid in visualization of the target region enabling appropriate patient positioning for radiation treatment using kV cone-beam CT.1
