EMLA (Elekta Evo); EMLA (VersaHD); EMLA (Elekta Harmony Pro); EMLA (Elekta Infintiy); EMLA (Elekta Harmony); EMLA (Elekta Synergy)

Elekta Solutions AB

The EMLA family delivers external-beam radiation therapy for adult and pediatric patients with benign, malignant, or metastatic disease. Authorized techniques vary by model: Synergy and Harmony include conventional and fractionated delivery; Infinity and Harmony Pro add SBRT/SABR; Versa HD and Evo also support SRS and specified functional disorders.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.
