Linear accelerators (LINACs) equipped with Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) provide cutting-edge solutions for treating tumours with exceptional precision. SBRT and SRS involve delivering extremely high doses of radiation to small, well-defined tumours in the body (SBRT) or brain (SRS) in one to five treatment sessions. These LINACs use advanced imaging and motion management technologies to accurately target the tumour, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. This high level of precision allows for effective treatment of tumours that are difficult to reach or located near critical structures. The benefits of SBRT and SRS include shorter treatment times, fewer side effects, and the potential for improved outcomes, particularly in patients with inoperable or metastatic tumours. The integration of these technologies with LINACs represents a significant advancement in cancer treatment, offering hope and improved quality of life for patients with challenging cancer diagnoses.
