Trilogy

The Next Generation Radiation Therapy for Cancer

The Trilogy^TM System linear accelerator is the latest technology available in radiation treatment for cancer.

Trilogy combines the capabilities of other external beam radiation technologies -- including Cyberknife, Tomotherapy, and Novalis -- all in one state-of-the-art machine.

The University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center's (UMGCC) Department of Radiation Oncology was the first academic medical center in the region to introduce the fully-integrated Trilogy^TM System.

RapidArc Enhances Already Powerful Trilogy Technology

Since the introduction of Trilogy in 2006, scientists at the University of Maryland have worked with Varian Medical Systems, makers of Trilogy, to develop a further refinement of the Trilogy System known as RapidArc. Trilogy with RapidArc technology now provides patients with the fastest, most precise targeted radiation therapy available.
