Relocatable radiotherapy
OSL Pioneer
OSL Pioneer is a relocatable, stand-alone radiotherapy treatment suite designed to house an advanced TomoTherapy treatment machine, treatment planning software, patient positioning accessories and quality assurance systems.
Pioneer delivers high quality advanced treatments for patients, with flexibility in its location, improving equitable access to radiotherapy. With rapid installation and commissioning times, Pioneer is fast and easy to install, delivering radiotherapy treatments less than two months after it’s positioned on site.
Pioneer radiotherapy treatment suite
Pioneer is a stand-alone suite that communicates with existing hospital systems such as PACS. The suite includes an area where therapists can plan cancer treatment and changing areas for patients. The Pioneer treatment suite is housed in a custom-built vehicle. At site, the sides of the suite move out, making the unit spacious and comfortable. The suite is installed on a pre-built concrete pad with access to utilities. An additional radiation shield is then constructed to meet local requirements. Finally an exterior façade can be assembled to create an attractive environment for patients.
