Elekta Unity using Magnetic Resonance Imaging is indicated for radiation therapy treatments and stereotactic radiation treatments of malignant and benign diseases anywhere in the body as determined by a licensed medical practitioner in accordance with a defined treatment plan.
Elekta Unity is intended for use with the compatible Treatment Planning and Oncology Information Systems.
The Elekta Unity 1.5T MR scanner is a magnetic resonance imaging system that produces cross-sectional images in any orientation of the internal structure of the whole body before, during, and after the radiotherapy treatment.
When interpreted by a trained physician magnetic resonance images acquired before, during, and after the radiotherapy treatment yield information that can be useful in diagnosis and may assist therapy planning, patient positioning and treatment delivery related to radiation oncology.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
