Central to the institute’s advanced treatment capabilities is the Elekta Unity MRI Linear Accelerator (Linac) - the first in Kansas City. This revolutionary technology combines MRI-Guided Radiation Therapy with a state-of-the-art linear accelerator, making it exceptionally effective for treating elusive soft tissue cancers and tumors located in the chest or abdomen. Its integration marks a significant leap in radiotherapy, marrying advanced MR imaging with cutting-edge linear acceleration within an architectural design that doesn’t compromise patient comfort or accessibility.
