The PDS (Particle Delivery System) is a modular hardware and software product. It affixes to the end of nearly any accelerator, transforming it into a modern particle therapy system. Our PDS components have operated in treatment rooms daily for well over a decade. The PDS is the premium choice with unparalleled performance and capabilities.
The Pyramid PDS is always improving and evolving. Here is how we stack up against the latest competition.
Metric | Pyramid | Others |

Spot Rate | 1000Hz | 400Hz |
Data Rate | 10,000Hz+ | 1,000Hz |
Beam Current | 1,000nA+ | 300nA |
Resolution | 0.1mm | 0.1mm |
Magnetic Slew | 250μs | >1000μs |
Architecture | Modular | Modular |
Supply Chain | Single Source | Multiple |
Magnets are often the bottleneck of a delivery system.
