American Shared Hospital Services said it has entered into an agreement to provide a Clinatron-250 proton-beam radiation therapy (PBRT) system to the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center of Orlando, FL.
Currently under development by Still River Systems of Littleton, MA, the Clinatron-250 is a single-treatment-room PBRT system incorporating proprietary technology, according to San Francisco-based American Shared.
American Shared said it anticipates commencing its lease agreement with M. D. Anderson Cancer Center Orlando for the PBRT system in 2009, after Clinatron-250 receives U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance.
