Helical Tomotherapy
Tomotherapy is the combination of intensity-modulated radiation delivered with the precision and accuracy of Computed Tomography scanning technology. This integrated approach is a powerful weapon in the fight against cancer, especially in the case of complex and hard-to-access tumours. In Tomotherapy, radiation is delivered slice- by-slice. Extremely high-end imaging provides 4D volume images of the tumours that are moving. This allows precision targeting. A sophisticated motion monitoring technology continuously updated the affected part, which is then targeted by the radiation beams.
The advanced multi-leaf collimator shapes the beam, allowing for microscopic precision and accuracy. We take precision and excellence to the next level with the revolutionary Radixact system, which is the new frontier of Tomotherapy. Powered by state-of-the-art 3D CT imaging, it uses a linear accelerator to deliver high dose of radiation to the tumour with sub- millimetre precision. This ensures that only affected cells are targeted; surrounding healthy tissue is not exposed to radiation. The Radixact Tomotherapy system.
