Patient Benefits
Our Trilogy Center offers patients advanced treatments that deliver higher, more effective doses of radiation with greater safety over a shorter time. Here are some of the ways our Trilogy™ System benefits patients:
- Tumors that were considered inoperable or difficult-to-treat, such as those near a major blood vessel, organ or the spinal cord, are now more treatable.
- Radiation can be directed at tumors of all sizes with less chance of damaging the surrounding healthy tissue and organs.
- Due to the increased accuracy and power, smaller lesions can be treated more quickly, easily and effectively. The ability to treat small areas accurately means less radiation-related side effects for patients.
- State-of-the-art motion management techniques allow doctors to correct for head movement and, when treating body sites, coordinate treatment with a patient's breathing patterns. During these treatments, patients can continue to breathe naturally, reducing stress and increasing comfort.
- The Trilogy System can be used to treat more types of tumors in different parts of the body, which means that more patients can be spared the invasive surgery and/or chemotherapy.
