RAD offers new building modules for cancer centers
RAD Technology Medical Systems is expanding its portfolio of modular building systems for radiation therapy. The stations are designed for the latest linear accelerator models. This means that patients can be treated just one month after the start of construction.
The portfolio of RAD Technology Medical Systems will be expanded to include three different building configurations for radiation therapy with linear accelerators (Linacs for short) in 2021. According to a media release, this should enable hospitals and cancer centers to set up stations with the latest models for electron and photon irradiation in less than a month.
The modular design and the patented granulate shielding system of the Florida and Lugano-based company made it possible to assemble the bunker within just a few days. The modules allowed a variety of building configurations, from a temporary additional bunker for radiation therapy to a complete and permanent facility for radiation therapy.
"We are excited to add this new radiation therapy station to our portfolio, which perfectly installs the latest generation of Linacs on the market," said Kenneth Wright, Vice President of Sales and Business Development. "In 2021 we will use this new type of bunker and cancer center in Europe and the USA for the first time."
