“The Xoft System has helped expand our patient
population. We currently treat skin cancer patients
that we typically or historically were not able to treat
with other modalities.”

Transform the treatment of NMSC
By offering Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx) utilizing the Xoft System, radiation oncologists are able to partner with
local dermatologists to treat non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) patients. The Xoft System utilizes an isotope-free
miniaturized 50kV x-ray source to deliver targeted radiotherapy directly to the lesion. The low energy source offers
fast dose fall-off, minimizing radiation exposure to normal healthy tissue. The treatment is non-invasive and painless.
Unlike traditional radiation therapy options, Xoft eBx typically requires a total of eight fractions per lesion administered twice weekly for approximately six minutes per lesion. Skin eBx is particularly beneficial to patients who may
find it difficult to comply with the three to four weeks of daily visits required by other radiation treatment options.

Cost Effective Radiation Treatment Option
“Treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer with HDR electronic brachytherapy using surface applicators was
effective” and “a convenient non-surgical treatment option for non-melanoma skin cancer patients.”
NMSC lesions were treated with Electronic High Dose Rate Brachytherapy using surface applicator to a dose of 40 Gy in eight fractions, delivered
twice weekly with minimum of 48 hour interval. A 10-50 mm surface applicator was selected to allow for complete coverage of target lesion with
acceptable margin1.
