C-RAD continues to advance treatment capabilities focused on breast cancer treatment by collaborating with Accuray on their new VitalHold™ Breast Solution for the Radixact® System. The VitalHold technology will be available to clinics and their patients in the United States and European Union as well as other regions, subject to regulatory clearance or approvals.*

The Accuray VitalHold Breast Solution facilitates deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) treatments using the Radixact System’s fixed beam angle delivery mode (TomoDirect™) and a fully integrated and automated surface-guided radiation therapy (SGRT) system, featuring the Catalyst+ HD system from C-RAD.

SGRT is designed to enable cancer care teams to effectively position the patient and confidently monitor the accuracy of that positioning throughout treatment.
