The Novalis® radiosurgery family includes Novalis and Novalis Tx™ systems. Together, the two systems offer patients fast and effective cancer treatment and greater access to advanced treatment options. Novalis radiosurgery is non-invasive, shaped-beam radiosurgery that takes just minutes out of the patient’s day. They go in, get treated and get back to life.
ABOUT NOVALIS RADIOSURGERY
Introduced in 1997, Novalis® Shaped Beam Surgery offers exclusive shaped-beam radiation that matches to the shape of the tumor, so even irregularly shaped tumors receive the prescribed treatment. Sophisticated software calculates the ideal access points to the tumor and defines the treatment plan.
Initially, Novalis was implemented for the treatment of brain tumors or lesions, where pinpoint precision is required to focus treatment on tumors close to critical structures within the brain. Experts soon extended the benefits of Novalis precision to other areas of the body, such as the lung, liver, prostate and spine, to improve and increase the range of patients’ available treatment options.
ABOUT NOVALIS TX RADIOSURGERY
