Date:10/30/2007

combination of accuracy, flexibility and dose control. Dr. Frank Vicini, M.D., chief of Oncology, Beaumont Cancer Institute, Beaumont Hospitals, says the three-dimensional kV volumetric imaging greatly improves the accuracy of tumor targeting. "Elekta Axesse is highly accurate because the real-time imager enables us to adjust, at the time of treatment, the shape and intensity of the radiation delivered."

Flexibility is vital to any successful radiation treatment, says Dr. Vicini. Elekta Axesse allows for multiple energy options and beam shaping options for efficient dose delivery and optimal target conformality, so healthy tissue is spared. "Quite simply, Elekta Axesse offers better cancer control and fewer side effects," Dr. Vicini says.

A history of technological collaboration

Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak physicians have a nearly 20-year history of partnering with the Elekta R&D team. The hospital has made vital contributions to the development of pioneering 3D imaging and treatment technology. "We have done research together that has contributed to the development of Elekta Synergy(R) and Elekta Axesse, and we continue to be strong partners in advancing treatment for patients," Dr. Martinez says.
