Fast and precise treatment with pinpointing the tumor

Nowadays, it is of great importance to treat cancer quickly and precisely. The TrueBeam radiotherapy system is also a method that can be used in many types of cancer and shortens the treatment time. TrueBeam is an advanced linear accelerator in which image-guided radiotherapy and radiosurgery applications are used together.

Overview

TrueBeam is defined as a revolutionary new generation beam therapy technology in cancer treatment. 

 

In this system, many technical innovations are used together with robotic imaging, automatic patient positioning, motion management and a structured control system to dynamically manage the treatment. 

 

Thanks to the method, many types of cancer can be treated, including lung cancer, breast, prostate cancer, head and neck, which are among the most common cancer types. TrueBeam provides advantages to patients with its fast therapeutic power and precise dose rates. 

 

At the same time, it enables the integrated use of advanced treatment methods such as intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). 

 

To put it briefly, imaging and radiotherapy systems are used in an integrated manner in this method.

Decreased movement for cancerous tissue

One of the most important advantages of this method is that the patients can be rapidly irradiated to the cancerous tissue by following the respiratory tract. 

 

Since the irradiation can be done by monitoring the respiratory movement, high treatment dose can be given directly to the area where the tumor is located. 

 

Thus, it is possible for the patients to stay on the treatment table for a shorter time, to reduce the tumor movement and thus to protect the healthy tissue at the highest level. Compared to other radiotherapy devices, it shortens the treatment time five times. 

 

In addition, it allows the treatment of small but risky tumors that are adjacent to important organs in the patient's body, while protecting healthy tissues at the highest level.
