This is the Elektra MR-Linac. The list of cancer centers who helped develop the Elekta is incomple (missing one in the screen shot).

The Elekta came out after the Mridian and it was good to have an alternative MRI Linac. The Elekta started out with fewer capabilities than the Mridian, such as auto shutoff when the patient moves. They may have added that and other benefits since I looked at it and MIM Software has partnered with GE since then and they provide the software for the Elekta so there is a lot going on with that machine which is positive but they both have real time/built in MRI, which is most important, as it reduces the margins so less healthy tissue is exposed.
