SBRT and More Transfer Sled and Accessories

This model expands the Zephyr's reach into Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and other specialties. A longer sled length and accommodations for accessories facilitate easy patient transfer between imaging, setup and treatment environments while keeping patients immobilized.

  • Varian® Exact® Indexed Immobilization enables standard treatment accessories* to be attached directly to sled (* Accessories shown in photos configured with CIVCO's SBRT Body Pro-Lok™ Rails Only System with Exact Indexing)
  • Kevlar shell/foam core body allows for MR/PET/CT imaging and minimizes attenuation during treatment
  • Security guide pins ensure safe longitudinal movements
