Reduce the risk of Cesium Irradiator with CIRP

The Cesium Irradiator Replacement Project (CIRP) is a critical, government -backed reimbursement program designed to eliminate Cs-137 irradiators.

Reduce the risk of radiological terrorism by reprocessing
and decommissioning Cs-137 irradiators

Promote safer alternatives like X-ray irradiators to
maintain research and medical capabilities

CIRP can pay 50% of the new X-Ray Irradiator (base unit) cost; 100% of the maintenance costs—up to 5 year and 100% for the removal of the Cs-137 irradiator

FAQs

1. Does Artemis provide both imaging and planning capabilities for treatment?

Yes. Artemis integrates augmented reality imaging and planning into a seamless
workflow. Its imaging system enables treatment field visualization through AR, working in tandem with a fully programmable XYZ stage to optimize field of view, conformality, dose rate, and throughput. For planning, Artemis leverages these AR images to define multiple regions of interest, each customizable with its own energy and dose rate prescriptions—all within a single treatment plan.

2. How do I know the irradiator is performing correctly before starting an experiment?

When the system is powered up, it will run through an automated diagnostic routine to identify any operational issues with the system. If any issues are detected, users will be notified on-screen with suggested actions. If no issues are detected, users will be taken to the start of the workflow to recall a stored plan/experiment or start a new one. During use, the system will continue to background monitor for errors and notify if detected.

3. How does Artemis ensure repeatable and reliable dose delivery?

Artemis integrates standardized dosimetry protocols directly into the system through a physics interface that will be accessible to staff with the appropriate login credentials. The QA and physics protocols were developed in collaboration with the ADCL and leading academic radiation physicists to provide full transparency in dose measurement and reporting, data reproducibility, and harmonization across institutions.

4. Can I verify and document system performance over time for regulatory or publication purposes?

Yes. Artemis includes OncoMatrix™, an AI-powered performance monitoring and predictive maintenance platform that actively trends and predicts potential system issues to optimize workflows and minimize unexpected downtime. All data is transparently available to the user for reporting, regulatory, and publishing purposes.

5. Am I eligible for government grants to replace my cesium irradiator?

Yes. The Department of Energy, through the Office of Radiological Security (ORS), implemented the Cesium Irradiator Replacement Project (CIRP) in 2014 to provide generous financial assistance for research sites to remove, purchase, and cover post-warranty support for up to 5 years to replace their Cesium irradiators with X-Ray technology. The program applies to all US sites and some international sites on a case-by-case basis. Please consult with Empyrean to discuss the process and contacts within the ORS.
