Common conditions treated by TrueBeam
What you need to know
Fast and accurate
TrueBeam’ s laser-focused beams hit tumors from multiple angles, striking their targets in a three-dimensional way. This helps ensure accurate patient positioning and enhances our ability to track patient movement during the procedure.
A wide spectrum of advanced radiation treatments is available with TrueBeam, including:
- Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
- Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT)
- Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)

Quality of life
TrueBeam can be used in combination with other technologies to improve patients' experiences, especially those with certain types of cancers:
Breast cancer patients benefit from tattoo-less treatment when TrueBeam is combined with Align RT Technology. This 3D camera system increases the accuracy of the using deep inspiration breath hold treatment (DIBHT), sparing the heart from the dose.
Brain cancer patients benefit from stereotactic radiosurgery, a non-invasive and painless treatment that uses robots to deliver precision radiation. This type of treatment improves the quality-of-life post-treatment for many patients.
