Leading U.S. cancer center selects RayStation for proton planning
RaySearch Laboratories AB (publ) announces that The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center - Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James), in the USA, has placed an order for the treatment planning system RayStation®*. Revenue from the order will be recognized in the fourth quarter, 2022.
The OSUCCC - James is the third largest cancer hospital in the USA and one of only 53 National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in the nation. Further, Ohio State is the first hospital system to bring proton therapy to Columbus and the central Ohio area.
