Medical physics Question:
What is tomoTherapy?

Answer:
The rotational delivery of modulated beams. This machine is similar in physical appearance to a CT Scanner, however instead of delivering keV X-rays to garner diagnostic information, it delivers MV (therapeutic) beam and is outfitted with a collimator with two sets of binary leaves that either open and close and deliver modulated dose patterns to the patient.
