Blue Physics

What Blue Physics does

Blue Physics (operating as Blue Physics Med) is a privately held Florida LLC founded in 2015 that develops plastic scintillation detector (PSD) systems and associated software for radiation therapy quality assurance. Its core offering is the Model 11 scintillation detector system, which uses 1mm cylindrical PSDs connected via optical fibers to a proprietary dose capture unit, paired with BlueSoft analysis software. The system supports up to four detectors for conventional linear accelerators (LINACs) and up to eight for proton and heavy ion applications, with detectors described as water-equivalent, angle- and energy-independent, and non-perturbing, enabling small-field dosimetry without TRS-483 correction factors.

The company extends the platform into specialized clinical and research use cases via dedicated modules: BlueFLASH for pulse-by-pulse dosimetry in FLASH radiotherapy, integrating with Elekta and Varian LINACs without hardware modification; BlueEndtoEnd for stereotactic radiosurgery end-to-end testing; Ultra Fast Scanning, which reportedly reduces beam data commissioning time by up to 80 percent using a 700 µs sampling rate; and a Small Field Dosimetry application for automated field centering, size measurement, and output factor calculation. The product is validated for use in MR-guided radiotherapy at both 0.35T and 1.5T field strengths and is FDA registered.

Blue Physics sells primarily through direct enterprise sales with demo-led engagement and a global distribution and service network spanning the United States, Spain, Mexico, Colombia, and Japan. Pricing is by custom quotation with multi-year contract options; revenue streams consist of Model 11 hardware, application-specific systems and inserts, and recurring or one-time service and support. The firm maintains a 15-site global consortium of research and clinical partners (including institutions in Cuba, Mexico, Spain, and Japan) for validation, peer-reviewed publication, and downstream adoption, and it markets via major medical physics conferences including AAPM, ECMP, ESTRO, and SEFM.

Direct peers

• PTW-Freiburg: PTW is the global market leader in radiation dosimetry, offering ionization chambers, diode detectors, and scintillation detectors for radiation therapy QA. It is Blue Physics' most direct competitor across conventional and small-field dosimetry.
• IBA Dosimetry: IBA Dosimetry provides patient QA, in-vivo dosimetry, and detector systems for radiation therapy, including solutions for proton therapy. It competes directly with Blue Physics across LINAC and proton therapy QA workflows.
• Modus Medical Devices: Modus Medical Devices (now part of Qaelum/IRC) develops QA phantoms and software used in radiation therapy, particularly for IMRT and SRS. It overlaps with Blue Physics' SRS-focused BlueEndtoEnd offering.
• Sun Nuclear (a Mirion company): Sun Nuclear is a leading provider of radiation therapy QA solutions, including daily QA, patient-specific QA, and detector arrays. It is a direct competitor across the LINAC QA category Blue Physics serves.
• Standard Imaging: Standard Imaging manufactures QA phantoms, electrometers, and detector systems for radiation oncology, overlapping directly with Blue Physics' small-field dosimetry and Model 11 detector positioning.

Broad incumbents

• Varian (Siemens Healthineers): Varian is the leading LINAC manufacturer and offers bundled QA solutions within its oncology ecosystem. Varian is a critical integration partner for BlueFLASH and a potential long-term competitive threat if it expands in-house dosimetry.
• ViewRay: ViewRay pioneered the MRIdian MR-Linac system, the very modality Blue Physics' MR-Linac detector capability serves. As an OEM, ViewRay is both a commercial channel and a potential competitor.
• Elekta: Elekta is a major LINAC and MR-Linac manufacturer whose hardware Blue Physics integrates with. As an OEM, Elekta could become a partner, distributor, or competitor depending on its QA roadmap.

Emerging players

• LAP Isodose Control (Laser Applications): LAP supplies laser-based patient positioning systems and QA solutions for radiation therapy, partially overlapping with Blue Physics' radiotherapy QA workflow but with a positioning rather than dosimetry emphasis.
• RTsafe: RTsafe provides patient-specific QA for stereotactic radiosurgery and proton therapy using 3D-printed anthropomorphic phantoms, closely aligned with Blue Physics' SRS end-to-end testing focus.
