We bring our patients together with the latest medical technology.
Trilogy
A highly versatile linear accelerator designed to deliver image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) and robust stereotactic radiosurgery with extreme adaptability.
Adaptive Radiation Treatment
The Varian Trilogy system is a powerhouse in modern oncology. It is a linear accelerator capable of delivering multiple forms of radiation, ranging from conventional 3D conformal therapy to complex Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT).
Integrated cone-beam CT imaging allows the clinical team to verify the exact location of the tumor every single day before treatment, adapting the radiation beams to account for natural organ shifts and tumor shrinkage over the course of weeks.
Advantages
-
Total Clinical Versatility
Can treat a wide variety of cancers throughout the body with different radiation modalities.
-
Daily Image Guidance
On-board imaging ensures the radiation hits the target accurately despite daily internal organ shifting.
-
High Dose Rates
Delivers radiation quickly, minimizing the time the patient needs to spend immobilized on the table.
Considerations
-
Older Architecture
While highly reliable, it lacks some of the hyper-advanced sub-millimeter tracking found in newer dedicated radiosurgery platforms.
-
Requires Strict Immobilization
Patients must be tightly secured to the table to ensure alignment matches the imaging data.
-
Fractionated Fatigue
As treatments are often spread out over several weeks, cumulative fatigue is a common side effect.
