`THE HIGH-VALUE SOLUTION
`FOR RADIATION THERAPY
`
`There is more to the price of an accelerator
`
`than its initial cost. To deliver real value,
`
`Varian's Clinam provide;
`
`' The highat dose rats for
`rapid patient trmtment
`
`‘ The highat reliability and stability
`for lower cost-per-patient treatment

`
`As radiation oncologists explore dynamic
`
`confonnal technologia to increase cancer
`
`cure rats and reduce morbidity, Lhae new
`
`treatment techniqua being developed
`
`require more precise delivery to allow for
`
`dose modulation and possible aaalation.
`
`The challenge is to add thae evolving
`
`technological capabilities to a linear
`
`acceierator without sacrificing the proven
`
`ability of the Clinac" for throughput
`
`and reliability.
`
`Varian Medical Systems has met this
`
`challenge by engineering advanced
`
`technologies into its entire line of
`
`aoceierator products. Today, whet_her you
`
`choose a low energy or a high energy
`
`aoceierator, your clinic can be assured that
`
`future capabilities, needed to implement
`
`evolving techniques, can be added quickly
`
`and cost effectively. Currently, 300
`
`upgrade options are available for Varian's
`
`family of accelerators.
