Cancer Treated with Radiation Therapy Elekta Axesse™ SBRT Linear Accelerator

James J. Urbanic, M.D., a radiation oncologist, and Carnell J. Hampton, Ph.D., a physicist at the Comprehensive Cancer Center at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, will use the most advanced linear accelerator to treat lung cancer.

The Elekta Axesse™ image guided linear accelerator offers highly-accurate targeting of tumors and lesions virtually anywhere in the body. Typically requiring only one to five treatments, it achieves excellent results in fewer treatments than required by standard radiotherapy.

“Axesse raises our technological and treatment capabilities to an even higher level,” said Urbanic, lead physician on the Axesse team. “We are able to deliver higher and more conformal doses of radiation to the target in fewer fractions than with conventional radiation therapy techniques.” For patients, that means more convenience and a faster return to their daily activities.
