The Radixact Treatment Delivery System is a radiation therapy delivery system that provides Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) using integral megavoltage CTimaging capabilities and delivers helical (rotational) and fixed-angle (non-rotational) radiation therapy to tumors and other targeted tissues.The Radixact Treatment Delivery System is a prescription device that delivers radiation in accordance with a physician approved plan. The Radixact Treatment Delivery System does not diagnose disease, recommend treatment regimens or quantify treatment effectiveness. It is not intended for diagnostic use.
An assembly of devices designed to produce high-energy electrons to yield high-energy x-rays used for therapeutic applications, primarily to treat cancer. It provides a uniform radiation field of uniform intensity and predictable energy level, in a beam with well defined dimensions. The principle of operation is linear acceleration of electrons by means of electromagnetic (EM) microwaves. The output is used as a treatment beam on the patient, either directly or after passing a suitable target. The system typically includes signal analysis and display devices, patient and device supports, and software.
