Manipal Hospital in Bengaluru has installed what it describes as India’s first Elekta Evo system to support AI-enabled adaptive radiotherapy. The hospital says the technology is designed to adjust radiation treatment plans during therapy, with the goal of accounting for changes in patients’ anatomy over the course of treatment. According to the reports, the move is intended to expand the availability of advanced radiotherapy capabilities in India, while improving planning and delivery workflows that rely on automation and adaptive approaches.
The Elekta Evo installation is presented by both outlets as a milestone for Manipal Hospital’s oncology services. The coverage focuses on the equipment’s role in enabling adaptive radiotherapy and the use of AI in treatment planning and refinement. While the articles emphasize the novelty of the installation in the Indian context, they do not provide detailed clinical outcomes, patient numbers, or comparative performance data. The reports primarily describe the deployment of the system and its intended function within modern radiotherapy practice.
