PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The phrase
"You have cancer" understandably strikes fear into the hearts of
millions of patients diagnosed with the disease every year around
the world. But what if we lived in a world without the fear of
cancer? What might that world look like? Is it even possible or
just a science fiction dream? Varian (NYSE: VAR) does not believe
it is science fiction and has just published a new vision paper,
"The Future of Cancer Care: Moving from Promise to Reality," to
describe this future state and detail the challenges that must be
overcome to realize it.

The Future of Cancer Care shows how advances in diagnostics,
genomics, precision medicine, immunotherapy, care coordination,
artificial intelligence, data analytics, and access to affordable
care all play a part in achieving a world without fear of cancer.
The paper also imagines the patient's journey at a time in the
future when cancer is no longer feared because it has been
transformed from a deadly disease to something manageable.

without fear of cancer and are driven every day to develop

disease," said Dow Wilson, president and chief executive officer at
