TomoTherapy Incorporated

Hospital Berlin-Buch has installed the TomoTherapy®

November 16 and the system was fully installed one month later. The
first patient treatments are scheduled to begin the week of January 21,
2008.
HELIOS Hospital Berlin-Buch is the newest hospital constructed by the HELIOS
Hospital Group, which is the largest, most medically advanced

HELIOS to help ensure that their cancer patients have access to
TomoTherapySM treatments by the end of next
month.”
HELIOS Hospital Berlin-Buch will become the seventh facility in Germany
to install the TomoTherapy Hi-Art treatment system. The
