This article seems to be part of a smear campaign waged by one user against this company. See User:Kmccoy/Delfino. kmccoy (talk) 11:19, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I removed the following text:

Ironically, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issued a warning on January 31, 2005 that a number of products manufactured, marketed, and sold by Varian Medical Systems and its affiliates are "known cancer causing agents" adding that "exposure ... causes many types of cancer including leukemia and cancers of the thyroid, breast and lung...."

I couldn't find any significant mention other than wp mirrors on a google search. If it's readded, it must include a reference. And since the article is now fairly neutral in my opinion, and I added the POV check, I'm going to remove it. Please feel free to re-add it if you disagree.

Thanks. kmccoy (talk) 17:38, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I inserted some text about the Clinac series of Linear Accelerators and added a picture of an individual being treated with the same type of machine. I think it needs a little cleaning up - Sorry for being such a noob :-) Thanks. Vinycard 02:46, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
