"We are excited to have been selected to supply our radiotherapy and radiosurgery systems to the new centers at Guy's Hospital and Queen Mary's Hospital and we look forward to working with the Trust in the years ahead as they seek to offer a wider range of advanced treatment options for cancer patients in south east London and further afield," said Adele Lyons, Varian's UK area manager.
The introduction of TrueBeam technology means Guy's Hospital will have access to High Intensity Mode, offering higher dose delivery rates and helping to widen the range of treatment options. Varian's new RapidPlan™ knowledge-based treatment planning system will also be available to physicists at Guy's to optimize the planning process.
