This is a model of the MR-Linac medical linear accelerator based on the “Unity” system marketed by Elekta (Stockholm, Sweden). Medical linear accelerators are large and highly sophisticated medical devices that emit focused beams of high energy ionizing radiation used to treat cancer patients. An MR-Linac is a medical linear accelerator integrated with an Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) device capable of producing live, high fidelity images as well as diagnostic information simultaneous with radiation delivery.
These videos illustrate the movement of the model's rotational gantry:
About 50% of all cancer patients are treated with radiotherapy at some point in the course of their care. Linear accelerators are the most frequently used device to deliver these treatments and are highly effective in treating the vast majority of cancers.
The model shown here were created with PLA filament, 0.10mm layer height and a few other minor tweaks.
