Stockholm, October 2 – Esteya®, an electronic brachytherapy system, has received 510(k) clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), enabling medical centers in the United States to offer their patients with skin cancer a new treatment option. Esteya is a new approach for high precision skin cancer treatment. The system relies on a small, high dose rate (HDR) to apply radiation directly to the cancerous site. This direct delivery enables Esteya to focus more therapeutic radiation on the disease target and to minimize radiation to surrounding tissues and organs. Electronic brachytherapy is well-suited for treating skin lesions, such as basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, achieving a greater than 95 percent cure rate for this technique1. “The interest in Esteya among radiation oncologists during the American Society for Radiation Oncology annual meeting last week in Atlanta was encouraging,” says John Lapré, Executive Vice President, Brachytherapy at Elekta. “They appreciated the efficient workflow, easy patient set-up, and the short treatment delivery time. They also cited the accessibility of Esteya – due to its compact design and reduced shielding requirements – allowing treatment to occur virtually anywhere patients are seen within the clinic.” The first installations of Esteya in the United States are scheduled to occur in the next few months. To learn more about Esteya, visit Esteya.com (http://www.esteya.com/). Availability of Esteya in target markets is dependent on regulatory admissions and approvals. # # # For further information, please contact: Johan Andersson, Director, Investor Relations, Elekta AB Tel: +46 702 100 451, email: johan.andersson@elekta.com Time zone: CET: Central European Time Michelle Joiner, Director, Global Public Relations and Brand Management, Elekta Tel: +1 770-670-2447, email: michelle.joiner@elekta.com Time zone: ET: Eastern Time About Elekta Elekta is a human care company pioneering significant innovations and clinical solutions for treating cancer and brain disorders.
