Xstrahl 200
The Xstrahl 200 is a low-energy X-ray based treatment system for radiotherapy. It has a kV range of 20-220kV and is much more compact and cost efficient compared to traditional linac-based radiation therapy. It can be used to treat non-melanoma skin cancer, palliative care, and benign conditions including keloid scars, Dupuytren’s disease, and more. You can learn more about the Xstrahl 200 here.
