Patient Benefits

  • Through more precise targeting of the beam, radiotherapy can be more effective at treating disease while simultaneously reducing side effects of the treatment.
  • Due to the increased accuracy and power, smaller lesions can be treated more quickly, easily and effectively.
  • State-of-the-art motion management techniques allow doctors to coordinate treatment with a patient’s breathing patterns. During these treatments, patients can continue to breathe naturally, reducing stress and increasing comfort.
  • Radiotherapy can be used to treat more different types of cancer, which means that more patients can be spared the invasive techniques of surgery and/or chemotherapy.
