• New Accuray CyberComm™ tool was used to significantly reduce the CyberKnife® S7™ System's commissioning time and enable product training in Genolier to begin more quickly

MADISON, Wis., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ: ARAY) announced today the initiation of CyberKnife® S7 ™ System medical professional training at its education center located within the newly opened Genolier Innovation Hub, a fully-owned subsidiary of AEVIS VICTORIA SA, in Switzerland. As the first industry partner to have a presence at the hub, Accuray now offers product training, and facilitates sharing of best practices and innovative techniques, on both its CyberKnife and Radixact ® Radiation Treatment Delivery Systems. Accuray began hosting Radixact System educational courses earlier in 2024.

A three-day series of events marked the grand opening of the state-of-the-art Genolier Innovation Hub, unique in Europe. "We congratulate the Genolier Innovation Hub team on the launch of their new facility and network. They are changing the model for cross-disciplinary collaboration in support of advancing patient care," said Sandeep Chalke, interim CEO & Senior Vice President, Chief Commercial Officer, at Accuray.

Continued Mr. Chalke, "We opened our European education center within the hub to expand access to advanced training to more Accuray CyberKnife and Radixact System users. We are committed to improving the lives of people diagnosed with cancer and this goal is intricately linked to our customers' ability to optimize their use of our systems. The opportunity to easily access training, such as the courses we offer at our center in Genolier, is critical to their success."

The Accuray education center in Genolier was designed from the ground up to provide a comprehensive learning experience. The training curriculum is created to reflect the distinctive needs of the diverse medical professionals involved in the care of patients treated using radiosurgery and radiotherapy. Course attendees have access to expert instructors and hands-on simulation facilities for training and demonstrations of the CyberKnife and Radixact Systems.

The CyberKnife and Radixact Systems have complementary clinical applications with the same goal: to empower customers to deliver the most precise and accurate treatments while still minimizing dose to healthy tissue, helping to reduce the risk of side effects that may impact patients' quality of life. The systems include advanced functionality that make it easier and more efficient to administer extremely precise radiation treatments, even to targets that move, providing the medical care team with options for managing the full spectrum of cancer cases, from routine to complex and initial treatment to retreatment, and neurologic disorders.
