Advanced Elekta SBRT technology used today includes Elekta Axesse™ and Elekta Synergy® S treatment systems and Symmetry™ and Intuity™ software. Symmetry is a breakthrough technology that enables highly accurate, yet completely non-invasive lung tumor treatments without requiring additional intra-fraction radiation imaging. Intuity ensures that not only is the tumor's position accounted for, but also the position of nearby healthy critical structures. Both innovations contribute to a more patient-friendly and safe treatment.
