The Oncology department is a well-equipped centre treating patients from across East London and Essex, committed to introducing the latest treatment techniques and equipment. External beam radiotherapy is delivered on Varian Halcyon, Edge, and Ethos Therapy linacs. The Edge is our stereotactic machine, with HDMLC, 4D-CBCT, 6 DoF couch, and HyperArc-enabled. Aria is cloud‑based, hosted by Varian. Treatment planning is done on Eclipse 17 (with RapidPlan and MCO licences) and in Ethos v2, with auto-contouring on Limbus. The department fully supports a wide range of clinical trials, and has an excellent selection of QA devices and software. We have a new Siemens go.Sim CT scanner; within the last two years we have introduced HyperSight on Ethos and Identify SGRT on all linacs. Our current commissioned SABR treatments are lung, bone (non‑spine), nodes, adrenal nodes, and spine, and we have recently started providing an intra‑cranial SRS service in partnership with Barts Health. We have collaborations and co‑operations with radiotherapy equipment vendors for reference site visits, training, beta testing and product development. A full linac refresh is due in 2027.
