The Future of Cancer Treatment
Medical Linear Accelerator (LINAC): Precision Therapy for Cancer
A medical linear accelerator (LINAC) delivers high-energy x-rays or electrons tailored to match the shape of a tumor, effectively targeting and destroying cancer cells while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This advanced technology is equipped with several safety features to ensure accurate dosage delivery, regulatory monitored, and verified by a medical physicist for optimal performance.
Before your radiation therapy session with LINAC, your radiation oncologist will work closely with a dosimetrist and medical physicist to create a personalized treatment plan. The plan undergoes rigorous checks before treatment, followed by continuous quality assurance procedures, ensuring each session is consistently accurate. This streamlined process also reduces the time our patients spend on the treatment table.
