STEREOTACTIC RADIOSURGERY
Arizona Oncology is proud to add the Novalis Tx™ to its compliment of radiation therapies. The Novalis Tx is a powerful, versatile platform for non-invasive, image-guided radiosurgery and radiotherapy. Benefits of Novalis Tx:
Precise
- Robotic movements of the fully automated treatment couch ensures the most accurate positioning every time.
- Shapes the radiation beam to match the exact contour of the tumor or lesion, ensuring the maximum prescribed dose of high-energy radiation is delivered to the entire tumor.
- Protects surrounding healthy tissue.
- Adapts the treatment beam to breathing and other body movements to continuously maintain safe, complete and accurate dose delivery.
Fast
- Non-invasive, outpatient procedure lasts just 15 to 20 minutes, rather than hours, for a more comfortable and less restricted treatment experience than other radiosurgery devices.
- Reduces the likelihood of patient or tumor movements, ensuring the highest possible level of treatment accuracy. Treatment can take place in a single day, although your doctor will decide if your treatment should be administered in a single dose or in a series of doses.
Versatile
- Employs a wide range of treatment modalities, ensuring you receive the best treatment for your individual case. Other radiosurgery devices are limited to only one treatment modality.
- Delivers the industry’s highest dose rate, penetrating deeper to treat tumors previously considered untreatable.
- Offers hope to patients with clinical conditions once considered untreatable and those for whom surgery is not an option.
Non-Invasive
- Frameless radiosurgery offers a more patient-friendly alternative to other radiosurgery devices that require immobilization with a head ring that attaches to the skull.
