Cancer tech advances
The Cancer Center of Santa Barbara unveiled its newest piece of technology, the Novalis Tx, on Sept. 15, heralding it as the most recent groundbreaking cancer treatment technology at its disposal. The Novalis Tx platform enables doctors to use image-guided radiosurgery to offer patients fast, non-surgical treatments for cancer and other conditions in the brain, head, neck and body.
Physicians at the center plan to use the platform to offer non-invasive stereotactic radiosurgery procedures for a diverse spectrum of conditions, including spine, lung, liver and prostate cancer.
