The Eugene M. & Christine E. Lynn Cancer Institute (LCI) at Boca Raton Regional Hospital is the first institution in Palm Beach County to treat cancer patients using the Radixact® System. The Radixact System is an innovative, non-invasive treatment option developed to deliver image-guided intensity-modulated (IG-IMRT) radiation therapy, an extremely precise form of radiation therapy.

While other radiation treatment devices are sometimes limited in their application, the Radixact System is capable of optimally treating virtually any radiation therapy indication, including breast, lung, prostate and head and neck cancers. The Radixact system is particularly adept at delivering elegant treatment plans for the most complex treatments, including complex breast cancer cases, head and neck cancer cases, and cranial spinal irradiation. In addition to being one of the most precise radiation delivery systems, treatment times are among the shortest.
 
The system provides continuous delivery of radiation from 360 degrees around the patient, which increases the control doctors have in getting radiation where it needs to be and helps to decrease the damage to surrounding healthy tissue and organs to help improve patient outcomes. Sophisticated
imaging technology is built into the way the Radixact treatment is delivered, giving physicians the ability to clearly see the shape and location of the patient’s tumor — anywhere in the body — in real time before each treatment session. In addition, SYNCHRONY software technology allows precise tumor tracking to account for even the slightest tumor motion.
