Major Czech Academic Center Expands Care to Offer Radiosurgery

SUNNYVALE, California, October 14, 2010 - Accuray Incorporated (Nasdaq: ARAY), a global leader in the field of
radiosurgery, today announced that the first CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery
System in Czech Republic is now treating cancer patients at the University
Hospital of Ostrava (UHO) Clinic of Oncology.

The renowned academic center has created a state-of-the-art oncology
department with the addition of the CyberKnife System, which is housed in a
new dedicated building. With this acquisition, the UHO is now able to
significantly expand its therapeutic options by delivering high doses of
radiation very precisely in only a few sessions. Their clinical program aims
at treating mainly extracranial indications including lung, liver and
prostate.

"With the addition of the CyberKnife System to our Radiation Oncology
department, we are now able to use full body radiosurgery to target tumors
that cannot be easily treated with traditional surgical techniques because of
their location, number, size, shape or proximity to vital tissues or organs,
or because of the age or health of the patient," said David Feltl, M.D.,
Ph.D., MBA, Head of the Oncology Clinic at the UHO. "The intelligent robotics
enables us to deliver radiation doses that conform closely to the shape of
the tumor. This allows for precise targeting of a tumor, while at the same
time minimizes damage to surrounding healthy tissue."

"We are very pleased to see the benefits of whole body radiosurgery
expand into Czech Republic," said Vittorio Puppo, General Manager, Accuray
EIMEA (Europe, India, Middle East and Africa). "This new installation paves
the way for greater patient access to CyberKnife radiosurgery, thereby
providing an additional treatment option to patients who may not have had
other options until now."

About the CyberKnife(R) Robotic Radiosurgery System

The CyberKnife Robotic Radiosurgery System is the world's only robotic
radiosurgery system designed to treat tumors anywhere in the body
non-invasively. Using continual image guidance technology and computer
controlled robotic mobility, the CyberKnife System automatically tracks,
detects and corrects for tumor and patient movement in real-time throughout
the treatment. This enables the CyberKnife System to deliver high-dose
radiation with pinpoint precision, which minimizes damage to surrounding
healthy tissue and eliminates the need for invasive head or body
stabilization frames.
