Siemens Healthineers debuted the Accela radiotherapy system Sept. 27 at the American Society for Radiation Oncology’s annual meeting in Boston. 

The system — which is pending FDA clearance — can deliver stereotactic body radiation therapy to multiple sites in about one minute, according to a Sept. 27 news release from Siemens.
