SPOTLIGHT: Characterization and Biological Validation of Photon FLASH FLASH (Ultra-High Dose Rate) Radiotherapy is an emerging cancer treatment modality that delivers radiation doses in milliseconds rather than minutes with a significant reduction in healthy tissue...
I have spent more than twenty years in radiation therapy, building systems, advising clinicians, and working to bring this technology to more patients. Last year, I became one of those patients myself. Diagnosed with Dupuytren’s contracture, I went through two rounds of low-dose radiation treatment at the same kind of facility I have spent my career supplying. What followed was one of the most clarifying professional experiences of my life, and a reminder that the gap between understanding a treatment and actually receiving one is wider than most people inside this industry ever appreciate.

For many patients with basal cell carcinomas or squamous cell carcinoma, radiation therapy can yield better functional or cosmetic outcomes than surgical intervention and radiation therapy may be the preferred option. For other patients with medical comorbidities or...
The Dermatology Insider 2023 is Xstrahl’s magazine for dermatologists. This issue of the Dermatology Insider includes patient stories about having SRT treatment for their skin cancer. In addition, hear from a dermatologist as he describes his experience using radiation therapy to treat non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). See two case history reports of radiation therapy treatment for skin cancer using SRT and eBt, detailing the number of treatments, dose per treatment, reasons for radiation therapy, as well as before and after images of the results. Xstrahl introduces Radiant Aura, which recently received US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) Clearance. We share more about using Radiant Aura and answer the most commonly asked questions in our FAQ section.
Myrna has a history of multiple skin cancers that were treated with Mohs micrographic surgery. During the last year, Myrna was diagnosed twice with basal cell carcinomas (BCC). Her dermatologist, Dr. John Binhlam of Advanced Skin & Laser Center, in Brentwood, Tennessee recommended superficial radiation therapy (SRT) as an alternative to Mohs surgery based on several factors unique to her. Myrna had SRT treatment delivered with the RADiant system, right in Dr. Binhlam’s office.
