CAT scanners are not radiation therapy machines, they are medical imaging machines. Decades ago I was part of the systems engineering team on GE's second generation whole body CAT scanner as it was in its later stages just before commercialization.

I was just a summer engineering student... I was really there to learn.

Years later I had global biz responsibilities for the same machine...

When I was with the employer that, if I recall correctly had a potential legal exposure from a patient/psychic, our radiation therapy folks got into hot water with FDA. They were in Concord, CA if I recall correctly, and there was some tension. Again this was decades ago.

I remember that was a bit of a backdrop when we were trying for FDA PMA on my machine...

Radiation therapy has likely come a long way since I first became acquainted with the technology in the late 70's...

.. the world is small...

I know a Porsche fanatic/racer that has a degenerative condition that I think is a result of old and poorer RT tech. Great man, loves Porsches and racing. Uses hand controls.
