Centennial Medical Center Brings Benefits of Whole Body Radiosurgery to Nashville

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Accuray Incorporated (Nasdaq: ARAY), a global leader in the field of radiosurgery, announced today that the 10th CyberKnife(R) Robotic Radiosurgery System was installed at a Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) facility. The installation took place at The Sarah Cannon Cancer Center at Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, Tenn.

"The Sarah Cannon Cancer Center is proud to continue delivering on its promise to provide the highest quality, most advanced cancer treatment options in our region with the addition of the CyberKnife System," said Rocky Billups, administrator for The Sarah Cannon Cancer Center Network. "With this new image-guided robotic technology, we are giving new hope to those whose tumors were previously thought to be inoperable and untreatable."

This installation marks HCA's ninth installation in the United States. HCA's first international installation took place in London at The Harley Street Clinic in December 2008.

"Our relationship with HCA has provided an additional avenue for getting patients throughout the world access to the treatment benefits of radiosurgery," said Euan S. Thomson, Ph.D., president and CEO of Accuray. "The installation at Centennial Medical Center marks the first CyberKnife System in Nashville and enables local patients to conveniently receive outpatient treatment for their cancer right in their backyard."
