TrueBeam STx
Ankara

TrueBeam STx is an advanced linear accelerator, a machine that delivers external radiotherapy to treat cancer with very high precision. It shapes powerful radiation beams to match the exact size and shape of a tumour and aims them from many angles, so that a strong dose reaches the target while nearby healthy tissue and organs receive as little as possible. Because it tracks the target and can account for movement such as breathing, it is accurate to within millimetres. This makes it suitable both for conventional, daily radiotherapy and for advanced focused techniques that treat a tumour in only a few sessions. The treatment is non-invasive and painless, with nothing entering the body.
