(OTCQB: VRAY) announced today that the company will showcase its MRIdian system and new faster, higher resolution imaging at the 57th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO), which will be held October 18-21, 2015 in San Antonio. MRIdian, the world's first and only MRI-guided radiation therapy system that images and treats cancer patients simultaneously, will be featured in a number of presentations highlighting clinical experience, real-time targeting and adaptive therapy.\n\nMany believe the future of radiation oncology lies inevitably in MRI-guided radiation therapy, making it a topic of great interest at this year's meeting. MRIdian will be the subject of 19 clinical presentations and posters presented as part of ASTRO's Scientific Sessions. Topics include the advantages of on-table adaptive treatment and outcomes in the treatment of bladder, abdomen and head and neck cancers. Two posters will highlight the value of MRIdian in delivering accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI), including tighter margins for treatment delivery and improved cosmesis. A number of physics topics related to MRIdian will also be highlighted, such as treatment planning, contour tracking and commissioning. A full list of MRIdian-focused Scientific Session presentations is available at http://www.viewray.com/astro_2015.htm\n\n\"We're excited that so many users of the MRIdian system will be presenting at this year's ASTRO, illustrating the wide array of treatment indications for which MRI-guided radiation therapy is beneficial,\" said Chris A.
