Revolutionary Integrated Design - Combines megavoltage CT with state-of-the-art intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
- Leverages the ring gantry geometry used in CT scanning for the delivery of IMRT from all angles around the patient
- Utilizes a high performance (32-processor) computer system for creating sophisticated IMRT plans
- Accounts for changes such as weight loss through clear analysis and precise adjustment of the treatment plan, delivering highly integrated adaptive radiation therapy (Hi-Art)
- Incorporates specialized software for treatment planning, quality assurance, patient set-up and treatment delivery, all using one centralized database
Unprecedented Cancer Care - Superior dose distributions
- Precise delivery to tumors near critical structures
- Effective treatment of large and complex tumors
- Normal tissue sparing
- Extreme accuracy enables re-treatment of areas not eligible for conventional linear accelerator treatments
- Adaptive planning based on tumor response
- Minimized side effects for patients with simple and complex cases
Widespread Applications - Tumors of the head, neck, spine, brain, lungs, pancreas and prostate
- Can benefit sarcomas, a variety of pediatric tumors and multiple metastatic lesions throughout the body
