Bronchial brachytherapy system applicator, remote-afterloading

47 devices · GMDN 38411

Bronchial brachytherapy system applicators (remote-afterloading) are medical devices used in targeted radiation therapy for lung tumors or obstructions. They guide precise placement of radioactive sources within the bronchial tubes, delivering localized treatment while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue.

These applicators are typically regulated as high-risk devices due to their role in radiation delivery, though classification varies by jurisdiction. They are often supplied as part of a complete treatment system, including afterloading units and associated software, and require specialized training for safe clinical use.
