UCLA to deploy ViewRay radiotherapy system
UCLA Health System’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center has selected ViewRay to provide the center’s new radiotherapy system.
ViewRay, a Cleveland-based medical device company, said it is developing the new research therapy system to feature a combination of radiotherapy delivery and simultaneous MRI. The continuous soft-tissue MRI during treatment will allow clinicians to see where radiation is being delivered, as it’s being delivered.
Pending 510(k) premarket notification review with the FDA, the ViewRay system is currently available only as a non-human use research system.
