Gustave Roussy, leading European comprehensive cancer center, chooses Elekta’s Versa HD

PARIS, September 1, 2015 – Gustave Roussy has awarded Elekta (EKTA-B.ST) with an
order for four Versa HD™ (http://www.versahd.com/) linear accelerators,
replacing their existing installed base of competing systems.
Gustave Roussy, a premier European comprehensive cancer center, started a
program in 2013 to gain a clear leadership in the field of radiotherapy.
Acquiring Versa HD will help it achieve its ambition to place innovation at the
heart of a human, scientific and technological revolution in the fight against
cancer.

Versa HD is designed to be the most sophisticated, high-versatility treatment
system, giving clinicians the flexibility to deliver conventional therapies to
treat a wide range of small and large tumors throughout the body, while also
enabling treatment of highly complex cancers that require extreme targeting
precision.

Ian Alexander, Chief Commercial Officer at Elekta, says: “Elekta shares Gustave
Roussy’s approach to oncology, which embraces values such as innovation,
dynamism, and cooperation. This new partnership will benefit the hospital staff
as well as the thousands of patients they treat every year.”

The hospital also installed Elekta’s MOSAIQ® (http://www.elekta.com/healthcare
-professionals/products/elekta-software/radiation-oncology.html) oncology
information system two years ago. The order for the Versa HD systems was booked
in Elekta’s first quarter for the fiscal year 2015/16.
