TomoTherapy Issues Treatment Quality Challenge

MADISON, Wis.--(HSMN NewsFeed)--TomoTherapy Incorporated (NASDAQ:TOMO ), maker of the TomoTherapy® Hi·Art® treatment system for advanced radiation therapy, announced today that it has issued a Treatment Quality Challenge. TomoTherapy will award $250,000 to any U.S. cancer center that demonstrates its ability to beat the quality of a TomoTherapySM treatment plan using the new RapidArc™ product from Varian Medical Systems.

“We believe that, even as radiation therapy vendors work to improve clinical efficiency, the highest-quality patient treatments must remain our industry’s primary focus,” said Fred Robertson, CEO of TomoTherapy. “With this challenge, we aim to provide a forum for U.S. clinicians to objectively review the quality that a continuous helical TomoTherapy treatment affords over a two-minute, single-rotation RapidArc™ delivery.”

Cancer centers are encouraged to learn more about this challenge, and to register, at TomoTherapy.com.
