Date:1/24/2008

s patient positioning for more rapid, effective, and comfortable treatments.

"Novalis Tx has the dose delivery rate, advanced imaging, and high definition beam shaping capability needed to offer faster, more precise, more comfortable radiosurgical procedures for our patients," said Fang-Fang Yin, Ph. D., professor and director of radiation physics at Duke University School of Medicine, which is completing the installation of a Novalis Tx.

Unlike other radiosurgical devices, Novalis Tx allows multiple beam energies from 6 to 20 million electron volts for treating deep-seated tumors and sparing surrounding healthy tissue more effectively. Clinics can treat twice the number of patients per day than with any other stereotactic radiosurgery system on the market. "The speed coupled with the precise beam shaping and advanced imaging capabilities make the most advanced radiosurgical treatments more affordable for hospitals and their patients," adds Dow Wilson.
