Who owns Elekta?

Elekta
Elekta Crawley/Parent organizations

How much does an MR Linac cost?

To illustrate, a single MR-Linac costs 10 million euros without the requisite infrastructure, such as MRI compatibility, MRI safety, clinical workflow and its accompanying software development, quality assurance and the development of protocols, roles and responsibilities.

What is Vmat?

Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) is a novel radiation therapy technique that delivers the radiation dose continuously as the treatment machine rotates.

What is Linac machine?

A medical linear accelerator (LINAC) is the device most commonly used for external beam radiation treatments for patients with cancer. It delivers high-energy x-rays or electrons to the region of the patient’s tumor.

Is Elekta a Swedish company?

Elekta’s corporate headquarters are located in Stockholm, Sweden and the company is listed on the Nordic Stock Exchange under the ticker EKTAb.

What are the limitations of linear accelerator?

The main disadvantage is that, because the particles travel in a straight line, each accelerating segment is used only once. This means that the only way of achieving particle beams with even higher energy is to undertake the expense of adding segments to the length of the linac.

What is MRI guided radiation therapy?

MRI-guided radiation therapy uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) together with radiotherapy to treat tumors and cancers throughout the body. The use of MRI during radiotherapy enables the most precise targeting of radiation by accurately tracking the position and shape of a patient’s tumor.

What is 3D CRT?

A procedure that uses a computer to create a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor. This allows doctors to give the highest possible dose of radiation to the tumor, while sparing the normal tissue as much as possible. Also called 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy and 3-dimensional radiation therapy.
