Radiation Therapy Using Linear Accelerator Technology

October 22 / 2026


Linear Accelerator

 

     The medical team considers the patient's condition, tumor size, and location to determine the most appropriate radiation therapy techniques, ensuring a personalized treatment approach.

 

Linear Accelerator (LINAC)

     The Linear Accelerator (LINAC) delivers radiation therapy by accelerating electron particles. It supports various advanced treatment methods, including 3D Conformal Radiotherapy (3DCRT), Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), and Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), which enable radiation delivery as the machine rotates around the patient.

 

Advantages of LINAC Radiation Therapy

1.  High Precision 

     Equipped with Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT) technology to verify the position before radiation and VMAT techniques to minimize radiation exposure to adjacent healthy organs.

 

2.  Faster Treatment 

     With Elekta’s Dynamic Agility™ MLC technology, the shape of the radiation beam can be adjusted quickly. When combined with VMAT, treatment times are significantly reduced.

 

3.  Versatility

     Supports a wide range of techniques such as IMRT (Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy), SRT (Stereotactic Radiotherapy), and SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy), ensuring suitability for various diseases and patient conditions.

 

4.  Enhanced Safety 

     Utilizes automated control systems and pre-radiation setup verification,reducing the likelihood of errors.

 

Patients Suitable for LINAC Radiation Therapy

  • Cancer Patients: LINAC can treat almost all types and stages of cancer, including palliative care to alleviate symptoms caused by tumors.
  • Patients Requiring High Precision: For tumors near critical organs, such as brain cancer, head and neck cancer, and lung cancer.
  • Patients Needing Specialized Techniques: For small tumors requiring high radiation doses in targeted areas, such as those treated with VMAT, SBRT, and SRT.
  • Non-Cancerous Tumors: Such as meningiomas (benign brain tumors).
