Featured Case Studies

Tomotherapy/Radixact

Deep Inspiration Breath Hold Using VitalHold™ on the Radixact® System

A 45-year-old female patient was diagnosed with pT2N1M0 invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast. The patient underwent breast conservation surgery with axillary dissection, followed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Radiation therapy was delivered by the Radixact® System, the latest generation of the TomoTherapy® Platform with surface guided radiotherapy (SGRT)

CyberKnife

Las Vegas CyberKnife® Experience with CyberKnife VOLO™ Optimization: Increase in Patient Throughput & Daily Volumes

Las Vegas CyberKnife worked with Accuray to upgrade their CyberKnife G4 version 9.6 and MultiPlan® version 4.5 to decrease treatment planning times significantly with new planning hardware and optimized software in the first release of Accuray Precision 1.0 and treatment delivery version 11.0.

CyberKnife

The CyberKnife® System Offers Alternative Treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia

The Hôpital Notre-Dame du CHUM in Montreal, Canada, hosts a monthly clinic for patients with trigeminal neuralgia, a debilitating nerve disorder, that causes “electric” pain in the face. Eating, teeth brushing, shaving or simply a light gust of wind can trigger pain. In 2012, an 89-year-old male patient suffering from
