"We are very pleased that Advocate Lutheran General Hospital has chosen Delta4 PT as part of the technology solution to offer advanced radiation treatments to its patients," says Brad Dugai, National Sales Manager at ScandiDos.

"When we installed our first Delta4 in 2006, it was used to verify both IMRT and Arc Therapy treatments. Now, 3 years later, rotational therapy is becoming the new standard radiation therapy and, significantly, our 100th installed system will be used for both TomoTherapy and Varian RapidArc," says Ingemar Wiberg, VP of Sales and Marketing at ScandiDos.

Delta4 has been used by linear accelerator manufacturers in the development and validation of arc therapy treatment modalities to include Varian's RapidArc and Elekta's VMAT solution.
