One of South Africa’s leading hospital groups ‘The Life Healthcare Group’, brings sophisticated radiation cancer technology to cancer patients in the Midlands. They are utilising a highly qualified and dedicated team at Life Hilton Private Hospital to make sure that the cancer patients get the best care possible. The cutting edge technology comes in the form of the Novalis Tx™ Stereotactic RadioSurgery unit, providing advanced radiation therapy to cancer patients with complex tumours.
This technology Novalis Tx™ shapes the radiation beam very accurately to the patient’s tumours, ensuring that the best possible treatment dose is delivered while the rest of the healthy tissue is protected. The radiation beam also adapts to the patient’s breathing and other body movements to continuously maintain safe, complete and accurate treatment. The unit rotates around the patient to deliver treatment beams anywhere in the body from virtually any angle. It offers quick treatment session and gives new hope to patients with tumours which was once considered untreatable and hence, incurable.
