Update on C-RAD delivery of its advanced surface tracking solution
to Swedish Cancer Center Nya Karolinska Solna
C-RAD announced in August that a contract to supply Nya
Karolinska Solna (NKS) and Södersjukhuset in Stockholm, Sweden with
its latest SIGRT (Surface Image Guided Radiation Therapy) solution
was signed with Elekta Instruments AB, the Swedish subsidiary of
Elekta AB (publ). C-RAD wants to give an update on this
project.
C-RAD is aware of the information that has been published by
Elekta on December 12, 2017 with regards to the Letter of Intent on
the supply of cancer care equipment to the center Nya Karolinska
Solna and Södersjukhuset in Stockholm.
The background is a public tender that was awarded to Elekta in
2016 to equip the radiation therapy department of NKS and
Södersjukhuset with Elekta radiation therapy equipment and 3rd
party products. The customer, Stockholm County Council,
specifically requested C-RAD`s cutting edge surface tracking
systems based on the products Sentinel 4DCT and Catalyst HD, to be
included in the contract. Therefore C-RAD acts as a sub supplier to
Elekta. C-RAD has a close cooperation with all major vendors for
linear accelerator. Therefore, regardless of who will be the chosen
supplier in this project, it is our goal that the customer will
retain their initial request for the C-RAD advanced surface
tracking solution as a part of the delivery.
C-RAD is in close dialogue with the customer and with Elekta to
determine the steps forward. As soon as new and relevant
information related to C-RAD’s supply of the surface tracking
systems is available, C-RAD will provide an update to the
market.
The contract has a total value of 21 MSEK for C-RAD, whereas a
minor part has been delivered and C-RAD received payment.
“Independent from the most recent development C-RAD is very
committed to continue working with the clinical customer and to
provide this prestigious center with the latest surface tracking
technology.” says Tim Thurn, CEO and President of C-RAD AB,
