Shaping a new era in intracranial radiosurgery Leksell Gamma Knife Icon ®

New possibilities for more personalized treatments The current environment presents significant growth potential for advanced brain programs, and Leksell Gamma Knife Icon is designed to meet the demand.

“It’s a new paradigm in SRS with Icon, where we have flexibility in fractionation, workflow, the lowest integral dose, sharp dose gradients—and all with the patient comfortable in a mask.” Arjun Sahgal, MD, FRCPC Radiation Oncologist, Odette Cancer Centre Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre Toronto, Canada The demand for stereotactic intracranial radiosurgery is increasing, propelled by many factors: Rise in cases among aging populations Higher expectations for quality of life • Trend toward more personalized treatment strategies • • In this environment, advanced brain programs are poised for...

Precision care for the brain Icon is a truly integrated system, with all components built on the same rigid structure and calibrated to one another. This tight integration ensures precision. It also contributes to an assured uptime standard of 98 percent.* High therapeutic dose with maximum precision During Gamma Knife radiosurgery, up to 192 low-intensity radiation beams from cobalt-60 sources converge with high accuracy on the target. At isocenter where the beams merge, radiation dose is concentrated powerfully at the target, while sparing healthy brain tissue. Online Adaptive...

Gamma Knife delivers lower dose to healthy tissue than other systems: lower dose to normal brain Ma L, Nichol A, Hossain S, et al. Variable dose interplay effects across radiosurgical apparatus in treating multiple brain metastases. Int J CARS. Published online: 20 April 2014. doi: 10.1007/s11548-014-1001-4

Clinical decisions determine the workflow Icon achieves high accuracy regardless of whether immobilization is frame-based or frameless. This unique capability opens up new paradigms for fractionation, enabling treatment of larger targets and targets close to critical structures. Clinical and workflow flexibility for intracranial SRS Icon introduces flexible workflows for: Greater freedom for greater opportunity · Frameless or frame-based procedures · Single session or fractionated treatment Mask-based workflow with stereotactic CBCT based registration This is making the exceptional accuracy...

“Vantage for Leksell Gamma Knife is clearly a step forward in terms of quality of images and reduced MRI acquisition time. Vantage is creating less artefacts and less distortion, which means that we can use MRI sequences that are faster.” Jean Régis, MD Director Stereotactic, Functional Neurosurgery and Radiosurgery Timone University Hospital, Marseille FR
