Radiation therapy bolus devices are single-use materials designed to alter the distribution of radiation during cancer treatment. Applied directly to the skin, they help adjust dose delivery to specific depths, ensuring precise targeting of tumors while protecting surrounding healthy tissue.
These devices are typically non-sterile and come in pre-cut or adjustable thicknesses, allowing clinicians to customize treatment based on patient anatomy. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as medical devices and must comply with safety and performance standards before market authorization.
