ACCELERATING A MEDICAL RADIATION THERAPY REVOLUTION
Our medical radiation therapy customers develop and market systems that are on the leading edge of technology for treating cancer. RadiaBeam has collaboratively developed custom beam-delivery mechanisms (the linear accelerator and its subsystems), optimizing the design and working through the integration. The result has fueled major advances in oncology.
A streamlined transition from prototype to product
RadiaBeam’s OEM linacs were recently integrated into a revolutionary MRI linac system that visualizes a tumor’s edges and surrounding organ positions in real-time, using a non-ionizing perspective never seen before in image-guided radiation therapy, all in a small footprint to address physical space limitations. We optimized the design from a science, engineering, and manufacturing perspective, perfected the prototype, and deliver manufactured accelerating structures on schedule.
