We are a small department comprising two matched Elekta VERSA Linacs, Mosaiq Oncology Management System, Pinnacle Treatment Planning System (TPS), Limbus AI OAR outlining software, and Canon Aquilion CT Scanner which was installed in 2024.

We have a Support and Information Radiographer, Urology Specialist Radiographer, and Colorectal/Gynae Specialist Radiographers who are all independent prescribers.
