AccuBoost nets Florida install

The Center for Radiation Oncology (CRO) in Brandon, Fla., has installed AccuBoost’s breast cancer radiotherapy system.

Kathryn Kepes, MD, founder of CRO, said that the AccuBoost design “delivers a conformal dose to the target tissue, sparing the remainder of the breast and underlying lung and heart from adverse radiation effects.”

The Center for Radiation Oncology provides care in five locations, including Brandon, Plant City, Sun City Center, Tampa and Zephyrhills, according to the Billerica, Mass.-based AccuBoost.
