Superficial and orthovoltage radiation therapy are used to treat many conditions with great results. See how Dr. Aurelia Klajer-Peres at Eiffelvet in France uses the Xstrahl system for both curative and palliative conditions.
Researchers sought to understand the role of kV treatment in locally advanced and/or metastatic breast cancer in which kV radiotherapy was used as the primary modality or as supportive treatment to linac-based RT to gain local tumor control and improve the patient’s quality of life. See details of the recent study, Kilovoltage radiotherapy as a supportive treatment in locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer – a series of six case reports, and the full report on six cases.
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.

Marcia is 74 years old and a great-grandmother from Bell Buckle, Tennessee. Last year, she noticed bleeding from a tiny spot on the tip of her nose. At her next appointment, she had her dermatologist, Dr. John Binhlam, take a closer look. He did a biopsy on the spot, and she was diagnosed with an invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the nasal tip. After a discussion of Mohs micrographic surgery versus nonsurgical superficial radiation therapy (SRT), Marcia chose to have the latter treatment done using the RADiant system at his office, Advanced Skin & Laser Center in Brentwood, Tennessee.
Dermatologists are frequently leading the way in the diagnosis and management of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). While Mohs surgery is the standard of care in the treatment of NMSC, the final decision on treatment for the patient should be based on their health, age,...
Mike had a quarter-sized spot on his leg that was not healing. A patient of Dr. John Binhlam’s dermatology practice for more than 20 years, he decided to seek treatment to heal his leg. A diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma led him to non-surgical superficial radiation therapy (SRT) treatment from Dr. Binhlam using the RADiant system at Advanced Skin & Laser Center in Brentwood, TN.
In the recent study, Short-term and bystander effects of radiation on murine submandibular glands, researchers sought to understand hyposalivation effects that can be caused by radiation. See details below and the full study here.
