What To Expect

IMAGING & MAPPING

You’ll relax in a treatment chair while ultrasound gel is applied to the site. Using a wand, your provider will visualize the cancer in real time on a screen.

PERSONALIZED DOSAGE

The machine calculates the exact dose of X-ray energy needed to target the tumor—without damaging healthy tissue.

FAST APPOINTMENTS

Sessions last about 15 minutes, a few times per week. Treatment is typically completed in 4 to 7 weeks
