Aktina Medical

What Aktina Medical does

Aktina Medical is a privately held US medical device company founded in 1981 and headquartered in Congers, New York, that designs and manufactures accessories and treatment systems for radiation oncology. The company serves radiation oncology clinics, hospitals, and cancer treatment centers, with named reference accounts including Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, South Pasadena Cancer Center, and International Cancer Center.

Its product portfolio centers on three franchises: patient immobilization and positioning (the positionPRO™ modular immobilization system with pitch-and-roll correction and the Aktina Memorial Cradle SBRT system co-developed with Memorial Sloan Kettering); radiation delivery accessories for Elekta and Siemens linear accelerators (Small Field Circular SRS Cones with patented electronically interlocking verification, beam shaping tools, graticules); and quality assurance plus respiratory management (the isoPoint™ machine vision LINAC QA system, the Respiratory Compression Belt, and Active Breathing Coordinator systems co-marketed with Elekta). The isoPoint™ system is the company's primary technology bet, using machine vision to deliver claimed 1/100mm isocenter characterization precision. Products are formally validated for use with Elekta LINACs through a documented co-validation relationship, and Siemens compatibility extends the addressable installed base.

Aktina operates a B2B, sales-led go-to-market with no public list pricing; products are quoted on request through the company website. Revenue is generated through capital equipment sales (isoPoint, positionPRO, SBRT cradles, cone systems), recurring consumables (thermoplastic masks, ABC filter kits), and ancillary medical physics consultation services. The company markets primarily through industry conferences (ASTRO, AAPM), an updated 2021 e-commerce-enabled website, and active social channels. Operating status is active, leadership is centered on Nicholas G. Zacharopoulos, no funding rounds, acquisitions, or ownership changes have been disclosed, and the firm appears to be founder/owner-operated.

Products and services

• isoPoint™ Machine Vision LINAC QA System A machine vision-based isocenter characterization and optimization system for LINAC quality assurance, providing 1/100mm precision for verifying and optimizing radiation therapy machine isocenter positioning. Targets medical physics departments at hospitals and cancer centers operating Elekta and Siemens LINAC platforms.
• positionPRO™ Modular Immobilization System A pitch and roll correction enabled modular immobilization system for cranial, C-spine, and head and neck radiation treatments. Features interchangeable head support modules, ergonomic hand grips, and thermoplastic shoulder support that indexes directly to treatment or simulation couch tops without bulky overlays. Targets radiation oncology departments performing head and neck radiotherapy.
• SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy) System The Aktina Memorial Cradle provides patient immobilization for SBRT treatments, originally co-developed with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Uses side pressure on the patient for superior immobilization and patient comfort, with direct index to table crossbar and paddle sets. Targets hospitals and cancer centers performing stereotactic body radiation therapy.
• Respiratory Compression Belt System A respiratory compression belt system for limiting patient breathing motion during body radiosurgery treatments. Available in Small, Medium, and Large sizes with bulb-gauge assembly and optional Remote Access Kit enabling console operation up to 100 feet away. Targets radiation oncology teams performing motion-managed body radiotherapy.
• Elekta Small Field Circular Cones SRS cones for Elekta LINACs featuring true cone size interlocking with a patented coding system. The host LINAC checks inserted cone size against the patient's plan and blocks treatment if a mismatch is present. Formally validated collaboratively by Elekta and Aktina Medical. Targets radiation oncology programs using Elekta LINACs for stereotactic radiosurgery.
