Let's get vaccinated! #vacciniamoci Do you see these fools? Everyone has fire torches. We don't have them and we can see very well!! (no vax philosophy)

Congratulations to the MR-Linac Consortium Consortium, which just celebrated 10 years, on generating more than 500 peer- reviewed articles! At Elekta, we believe that ‘see what you treat’ is vitally important, and Unity is doing just that! 🎉

Prediction of distant metastases after SBRT for early stage NSCLC - Age and ECOG PS are driving the risk, together with prior lung cancer (independent of current disease) 👉 limited predictive power of tumor specific parameters ❓ therapeutic implications jto.org/article/S1556-…

Automatic gating without the need for difficult-to-tolerate breath holds. At UMC Utrecht upper-abdominal #cancer patients can now keep their normal breathing pattern during gated treatments on Elekta Unity. Hear benefits straight from the UMCU team ➡️ bit.ly/3IxU4d1

In #radiotherapy, a multileaf collimator (or MLC) is used to shape the beam generated by a linac. This may seem complex, but this interactive model designed by the Elekta UK Engineering team recently made it easy for students to understand how radiation therapy can treat #cancer.

At Ospedale Sacrocuore Don Calabria in Negrar today we implemented Monte Carlo on-line dose recalculation with SciMoCa keeping into account 1.5T magnetic field for Elekta Unity. Thanks to Markus Alber’s collaboration. Roberto Pellegrini Filippo Alongi #MRgRT #Elekta #CMM #Unity

Our patient comes for SBRT on 3 liver metastases. All 3 lesions were treated simultaneously using Elekta Unity MR-Linac (total dose of 60Gy in 3fx). You can see in real time the movement of 1 lesion by means Comprehensive Motion Management (free breathing with automatic gating)

Proud that our center experience on MR-guided prostate SBRT was shared from my colleague/friend during Advanced Uro-Oncology Days conference!

This is our first clinical experience with the new pelvic motion monitoring protocols for prostate SBRT by means 1.5T MR-LINAC. The new T2 TSE scans provider better resolution in pelvic anatomy visualisation and lower artifacts compared to the previous bTFE sequence. #precisionRT
