Elekta announced the introduction of its latest linear accelerator (linac), Evo, to the Indian market. Already launched in Europe and other regions, Evo is now available in India, bringing high-definition AI-enhanced imaging and its adaptive radiation therapy capabilities to clinicians across the country. The highly versatile CT-Linac will enable clinicians to choose the most suitable radiation therapy technique for each individual patient. Evo was showcased for the first time in India at the Association of Radiation Oncologists of India Conference (AROICON) in Kolkata, the country’s largest industry exhibition in radiation oncology.
Feras Al Hasan, Head, TIMEA, Elekta said, “We are delighted to bring our flagship innovation Evo Elekta to India. Evo brings a new level of flexibility to India’s radiotherapy landscape and is designed to help centres deliver more personalised, efficient care. Its ability to support both online and offline adaptive treatments on a CT-Linac gives clinicians the confidence to adjust therapy based on daily anatomical changes which is especially important in India, where many patients present with complex and advanced stage diseases. Our aim is to strengthen Elekta’s commitment to making high-quality cancer treatment accessible to more patients across the globe.”
Shankar Seshadri, VP & Head – India Sub-continent, added, “India needs radiotherapy solutions that combine precision with practicality and Evo is uniquely positioned to address India’s growing cancer burden and evolving patient needs. Its adaptive capabilities and streamlined workflow help high-volume centres treat more patients without compromising treatment quality. The arrival of Evo in India marks a significant milestone, as it will help accelerate our market growth in the region.”
