“This, as an innovation… something people thought was impossible. It really changes the game
in how we deliver radiotherapy to cancer patients.”
Fighting cancer is not an easy task. Each body responds differently and each tumor is unique -
so treatment must be personalized and precise. But, as companies like Elekta push forward
advancements in the field, cancer care is becoming more targeted and effective than ever
before.
Elekta is a company creating cutting-edge linear accelerators, devices that deliver life-saving
radiation therapy. In this episode we meet Chris Gilpin, Chris Flint and Mark Range at the
company’s HQ in the UK. Find out how radiation therapy works, and why it’s playing an
increasingly important role in cancer prevention. Get up close with the machines and take a tour
through the factory to see how they’re built. And learn how Elekta’s IntelliMax system is bringing
radiotherapy to underserved and remote countries all over the world.
