According to U.S. News & World Report's recently published annual hospital rankings, each of the best 50 cancer hospitals in the U.S. uses Elekta hardware, software or both.


"As the complexity of care increases, health care providers require even more sophisticated tools to give their patients the best possible treatment," says Bill Yaeger, Executive Vice President Region North America. "We are very proud that these hospitals have chosen Elekta to help them deliver this quality of care."

More than half of the top-ranking hospitals rely on Elekta's MOSAIQ® Oncology Information System (OIS), which provides a one-stop, centralized database for easy access to patient care and management. Preferred due to its unparalleled clinical capability and track record, Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ is the most utilized brain radiosurgery device by America's best hospitals.

  • Versa HD ™, a sophisticated linear accelerator designed to enhance the management of cancer care and treat a broad spectrum of tumors throughout the body
  • Monaco®, a state-of-the-art IMRT, VMAT and SRS planning solution that delivers high performance and high precision radiotherapy treatment planning
  • Clarity®, a non-invasive, non-ionizing image guidance technology that provides soft tissue visualization and is compatible with any existing linac
