Gustave Roussy Chooses RayStation as its Main Treatment Planning System

RaySearch LaboratoriesSince its creation 70 years ago, Gustave Roussy has developed an innovative model of comprehensive care and a large network of satellite centers and partners, both nationally in France as affiliated to the Unicancer Federation, and internationally as a member of the Cancer Core Europe consortium, which consists of six European centers of excellence in oncology.

In the context of an international development project to be conducted during 2015-2020, Gustave Roussy is looking to equip its radiation therapy department with state-of-the-art technologies. In order to develop the best possible care protocols to ensure its patients gain access to the most effective, innovative treatments, Gustave Roussy’s radiation oncology team has selected RayStation® for its treatment planning.

"We are extremely proud to collaborate with such an internationally renowned center as Gustave Roussy," said Johan Löf, CEO of RaySearch. "This represents an important acknowledgement that we, at RaySearch, have succeeded in developing a system that supports and enables cancer care excellence. It is also an incredible boost in our continuous effort to develop best-in-class products to advance cancer treatment. This is an important milestone for our expansion in the French oncology market and we hope that many French cancer patients will benefit from the RayStation® technology."
