At Best® Theratronics we design products and solutions that help medical professionals treat cancer. Our products are used throughout the world to deliver radiation treatments. We are best known for the Theratron® Teletherapy treatment systems using Cobalt-60. We have over 50 years of experience in designing, manufacturing, installing, and servicing Cobalt-60 based external beam systems. Over that time we have installed more than 1,500 Theratrons® and supply over 80% of the world’s gamma based external beam systems. Today these machines deliver 45,000 treatments per day. The Theratron® Equinox™ is the newest member of the Theratron® line, a new design that offers more reliability and more functionality. As one of the members of the Team Best® companies, we are excited to expand our product offerings beyond external beam treatment systems. Our aim is to be the Single Source Oncology Solutions Provider™ of choice for our customers. We can now offer our customers a wide array of best in class products used in brachytherapy and external beam radiation. It is through our commitment to our customers that we succeed in our mission to provide healthcare for everyone

Theratron® Equinox™ has asymmetrical collimators that allow the jaws to move independently, providing more freedom in treatment planning. Arc therapy is now a simple matter of entering the arc angle and time, since the control system automatically determines the gantry speed to complete the arc. The new Motorized Wedge lets you treat with the wedge angle you need (between 1 and 60 degrees).As with all modern treatment machines, Theratron®Equinox™ can interface to all of the major record and verify systems to allow for rapid treatment parameter loading, treatment set up verification, and the recording of the delivery.
