Surface Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) is a technology that helps precisely target your cancer – even if you move – to help protect surrounding healthy tissue including your heart.
Introducing AlignRT
The new standard in radiation therapy
Surface-Guided Radiation Therapy (SGRT) is an innovative technology which increases treatment accuracy and patient comfort during radiation therapy. AlignRT’s innovative 3D camera system tracks your body surface in real time to help clinicians pinpoint your radiation treatment to a specific area. Using SGRT can dramatically reduce the risk of side effects and unwanted secondary health conditions. It can also mean you won’t need radiotherapy tattoos or permanent marks.
