With Ohio’s first tomotherapy machine, University Hospitals Case Medical Center remains at the forefront of innovative radiation therapy treatment. Tomotherapy combines a 6 MV linear accelerator with a CT scanner to allow highly conformal image-guided radiotherapy.
This cutting edge technological combination allows the radiation therapy team to deliver treatments that can easily be adjusted on a daily basis to account for changes in tumor volume and/or position.
Tomotherapy has been available at University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center since the summer of 2005.
