Description : GammaTile®

GammaTile®

The journey for a patient with a brain tumor is deeply emotional. Newly diagnosed patients often arrive at the emergency department due to changes in vision, balance, or cognitive function.

Their world is quickly turned upside down as they race towards surgery. Unfortunately, many patients ( 50% for glioblastomas) experience recurrence within a few months and, along with their dedicated family members and clinicians, must navigate treatment options once again.

It has been over a decade since an innovative treatment option was cleared by the FDA until GammaTile® Therapy!

GT Medical™ Technologies exists to provide a better option for these patients, caregivers, and clinicians. Guided by our Shared Values of Empathy, Empowerment, and Excellence, we strive to make a meaningful difference.

Our Corporate Purpose is to Improve the Lives of Patients with Brain Tumors, and this mission drives us daily.

GammaTile® Therapy is supported by over 100 incredible teammates who collaborate organically, challenge appropriately, and are consumed with helping the next patient.

With a growth rate of 30% per year in orders, revenue, and clinical trial enrollments, our progress is encouraging, and we are aiming for even better results this year.

We have a great core team, an innovative solution, and the resources to support further growth.

We are now seeking a Manufacturing Technician to add to our manufacturing team. If you have a heart for patients with brain tumors, experience with manufacturing, and strong to detailed execution, we’d love to talk to you!
