Product catalog summary
Introduction
Xoft provides an innovative alternative to traditional radiation therapy for early-stage breast cancer through the Xoft® Axxent® Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx®) System®. This system allows for intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT), delivering radiation during surgery.

Applications
IORT can be used for a single fraction or boost dose in breast cancer treatment. Research is ongoing for its application in prostate, pancreatic, colorectal, and brain cancers.

Axxent Rigid Shield
The Axxent Rigid Shield is an optional component designed to protect tissues or organs from radiation. It can be used internally or externally, particularly during IORT when the treatment site is exposed.

  • Available in multiple diameters to fit the lumpectomy cavity, optimizing shielding.
  • Shields low-energy radiation up to 50kVp with ≥ 90% attenuation, equivalent to 0.2 mm lead at 50 kVp.
  • Made from purified, biocompatible, non-toxic, surgical-grade stainless steel.
  • Sterilizable and reusable.

Specifications
