NOVAC11 is the descendant of NOVAC 7, the first IOeRT mobile electron linear accelerator designed worldwide in 1997. NOVAC 11 is a very solid technology which performed thousands of IOeRT treatments worldwide. The basic architecture of NOVAC7 has been updated in order to reach 10 MeV;  furthermore, the Human Machine Interface (HMI) has been entirely updated in order to meet the technical standard requirements. It is therefore the first example of a radiotherapy device which is flexible and easy to use, powerful and safe. It is able to perform the IOeRT treatment in only 100 seconds. NOVAC 11 ensures proper coverage of any anatomic region where the IOeRT treatment needs to bedelivered . By selecting the correct applicator/energy combination, it is possible to treat any neoplastic disease effectively and safely. NOVAC 11 maximum energy is 10 MeV which allows treating targets with a thickness up to 2.6 cm inside the 90% isodose (3.0 cm inside the 80% isodose). FLEXIBLE & EASY TO USE – THE HAND PENDANT: it is equipped with a bar code reading system used to recognize the selected applicator – LIGHT WEIGHT OF MOBILE UNIT: the impact in the operating room is minimal, and no structural changes are necessary. – TRANSPORT INTO STRETCHER ELEVATOR: NOVAC 11 can be easily transported to the operating room through the use of any stretcher elevator. – FUNCTIONALITY IN MULTIPLE OPERATING ROOMS: the system can be quickly moved via the dedicated hand pendant and utilized in any operating room, thus maximizing its employment.
