Skin-tumour low-voltage therapeutic x-ray system

19 devices · GMDN 41023

This category covers complete x-ray therapy systems designed to treat superficial skin tumours using low-voltage beams. These devices are used clinically for palliative or curative treatment of malignant and benign skin lesions, typically targeting areas close to the body surface. The systems operate with acceleration voltages generally below 100 kV, allowing for precise, shallow penetration into the skin tissue.

Devices in this category are supplied as integrated assemblies of x-ray generation and delivery components. They are regulated as therapeutic x-ray systems, with the specific regulatory pathway determined by the jurisdiction and the device's intended use. The classification and supply requirements follow the standards for medical radiation equipment, ensuring safe and effective delivery of targeted superficial radiation.
