RIT
was founded in 1993 by Daniel M. Ritt and Ellen Miller Ritt. RIT received
FDA clearance on RIT113 radiation therapy film dosimetry that year,
and sold their first system soon thereafter. RIT113's revolutionary
innovations provided clinical and research physicists with the first
high precision automated QA tool for advanced radiation therapies.
RIT quickly became recognized as the leading innovator in precision
automated QA, developing the first automated IMRT analysis, which
was used by the first commercial IMRT Treatment Planning System manufacturer
to document and verify IMRT Dose delivery for its' FDA application.
RIT's IMRT QA analysis provided clinical physicists with the tool
necessary to analyze this new advanced cancer treatment, thereby participating
in the rapid availability of this treatment, which significantly improves
cancer survival rates, to the community hospital level both in the
US and worldwide. RIT is the only radiation therapy QA system available
that interfaces with every commercially available TPS system, and
was the first manufacturer to offer independent dose QA for direct
digital images from CR and EPID. RIT software is used in more than
1500 hospitals, including 19 of the Top 20 US Cancer Treatment Hospitals*
and in 36 countries worldwide. RIT continues to lead the dosimetry
market in innovation and holds many US and international patents on
their QA routines.
