UK National Health Service to Purchase Seven Radiation Therapy Systems

The system can be used for fast, and precise delivery of a specific radiation dose, and enables personalized radiation therapy treatments. The system also offers interactive planning, and daily Computed Tomography (CT) images.

The NHSSC provides healthcare products and services for the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK. The purchase of the TomoTherapy systems was part of an existing agreement with Accuray for radiotherapy, imaging, endoscopy and accessories.

Andy Brown, managing director of Capital Solutions at the UK NHSSC, said, “NHS Supply Chain is committed to offering high-quality, cost effective radiotherapy treatment systems to the NHS and improving patients’ access to new and effective treatment. We believe our latest deal with Accuray will help us achieve these objectives as well as enable us to further support the delivery of the national cancer strategy”.
