Tech News Summary:
- RaySearch Laboratories AB’s RayCare oncology information system (OIS) can now connect to Varian Medical Systems’ TrueBeam linear accelerators, following an interoperability agreement between the two companies in 2020. This enables data to flow seamlessly between the system and treatment delivery devices, allowing for effective cancer care.
- Varian’s TrueBeam platform is one of its most popular treatment delivery systems, supporting all types of treatment techniques provided by C-arm linacs.
- The interoperability certification means RayCare can now be used with all linacs in the TrueBeam family, subject to regulatory clearance in some markets, and increases RayCare’s addressable market while also providing Varian users access to advanced OIS capabilities.
In a move that is set to revolutionize cancer treatment, RaySearch Laboratories and Varian Medical Systems recently announced the integration of their respective treatment planning platforms, RayCare and Varian TrueBeam. This collaboration marks a significant breakthrough in cancer care delivery, as it brings together two of the world’s leading technologies in radiation therapy.
The integration of RayCare and TrueBeam will allow healthcare providers to streamline their treatment planning workflow and enhance the precision of radiation delivery. With RayCare’s advanced management capabilities and TrueBeam’s high-definition imaging, doctors will be able to better target cancerous cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.
The joint project has been in the works for several years and is expected to have a significant impact on cancer care worldwide. “Our partnership with Varian Medical Systems is an exciting development and marks a new era in cancer treatment,” said Johan Löf, CEO of RaySearch Laboratories.
The integration of RayCare and TrueBeam is set to redefine the treatment landscape for many cancer patients and provides further evidence of the power of collaboration between leading technology innovators. This groundbreaking collaboration signifies a major milestone in the fight against cancer and is expected to save countless lives and minimize the physical and emotional impact of cancer treatment.
