Dynamic Spherical Delivery*: The Next Generation of World-Class SRS. Combining ZAP-X’s novel gyroscopic mechanics with continuous beam delivery, Dynamic Spherical Delivery is set to redefine SRS efficiency, dose gradient, and conformality. Transcending the innate mechanical shortcomings of multi-purpose radiotherapy systems, for the first time ever, continuous orthogonal beams, spirals, oblique spirals, or any combination become reality. The goal: better treatments in less time.

JUST PUBLISHED: A Comparison of Whole-Brain Dose During Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Multiple Metastases Across Technology Platforms
A standardized imaging dataset taken from a patient with 10 random brain metastases was used to calculate the radiation dose delivered to the uninvolved normal brain across a range of modern SRS delivery platforms. This analysis reveals that irradiation of the uninvolved brain is considerably less on dedicated cranial SRS devices compared to multi-purpose C-arm and full-body robotic systems. Given the growing recognition of lower-dose radiation’s deleterious effects, these findings may have relevance to patient and technology selection.
