A New Era In Cancer Technology: The Trilogy System
The Mitchell Memorial Cancer Center is committed to giving our patients the most advanced tools available to help win the fight against cancer. Nowhere is that commitment more evident than with the Trilogy Stereotactic System from Varian Medical Systems, one of the most advanced medical linear accelerator systems in the world. The Trilogy system gives the Cancer Center the capability to treat tumors and lesions with pinpoint accuracy, and in less time than ever before.
The Trilogy linear accelerator features several stunning technological advances, including:
- Highly advanced radiation beams
With unmatched power and accuracy, the Trilogy is able to deliver higher doses of radiation in fewer sessions, so patients spend less time in treatment. It can also treat tumors that are close to vital structures while avoiding or minimizing damage to healthy tissue.
- Integrated imaging capabilities
In just minutes, the Trilogy is able to acquire x-ray and CT scan images and then position patients with sub-millimeter accuracy. New motion management techniques allow the system to adjust for tumor motion during treatment. With built-in correction capability, the Trilogy can deliver higher doses of radiation with fewer side effects.
The Trilogy linear acclerator marks a new era in cancer treatment in our region, giving patients access to world-class cancer technology.
Advanced technology...one of the reasons the Mitchell Memorial Cancer Center is positioned to be the regional leader in cancer treatment for years to come.
