Elekta has introduced its latest linear accelerator (linac), Evo, to the Indian market, expanding its global rollout after introductions in Europe and other regions.

Evo brings high-definition AI-enhanced imaging and its adaptive radiation therapy capabilities to clinicians across the country, enabling them to choose the most suitable radiation therapy technique for each patient. The AI-powered, adaptive CT-Linac made its India debut at the Association of Radiation Oncologists of India Conference (AROICON) in Kolkata, the country’s largest industry exhibition in radiation oncology.

Feras Al Hasan, Head of TIMEA, Elekta said, “Evo brings a new level of flexibility to India’s radiotherapy landscape and is designed to help centres deliver more personalised, efficient care. Its ability to support both online and offline adaptive treatments on a CT-Linac gives clinicians the confidence to adjust therapy based on daily anatomical changes, which is especially important in India, where many patients present with complex and advanced-stage diseases.”

Hasan reiterated Elekta’s commitment to making high-quality cancer treatment accessible to more patients across the globe.

Shankar Seshadri, VP & Head - India Sub-continent, added, “India needs radiotherapy solutions that combine precision with practicality and Evo is uniquely positioned to address India’s growing cancer burden and evolving patient needs. Its adaptive capabilities and streamlined workflow help high-volume centres treat more patients without compromising treatment quality. The arrival of Evo in India marks a significant milestone, as it will help accelerate our market growth in the region.”

Adaptive radiotherapy, also known as Adaptive Radiation Therapy or ART, is a treatment approach in which the radiation plan is adjusted over the course of therapy to account for changes in a patient’s unique anatomy and or tumor. Delivering this therapy requires high-quality imaging that enables clinicians to visualize tumours and organs at risk, ensuring precise contouring. Evo helps address this need with two essential features: Iris high-definition, AI-enhanced imaging, which allows visualisation of target areas with greater clarity, and Elekta ONE Online software, which brings distributed treatment planning, faster dose calculation and AI-driven automation for contouring and dose planning.
