Carlos Calle, lead medical physicist, said, "Thanks to a smooth installation and commissioning process, we were able to begin TrueBeam treatments quickly. It really is an excellent machine with enhanced clinical capability and great usability that helps to streamline our clinical workflow and better serve our patients." Designed to advance the treatment of lung, breast, prostate, head and neck, and other types of cancer, the TrueBeam platform for image-guided radiotherapy and radiosurgery was introduced by Varian in April as the first fully-integrated radiotherapy system designed from the ground up to treat a moving target with unprecedented speed and accuracy. Kantonsspital Winterthur is a public hospital with a radiation oncology department serving 400,000 patients. Over 850 new patients are treated each year and this is expected to increase by up to five percent per annum.
