Radiation therapy bolus devices are reusable materials designed to alter the distribution of radiation during cancer treatment. Applied directly to the skin, they help ensure the correct dose reaches targeted tissues while protecting surrounding areas, often used for precise depth control in external beam therapy.
These devices are typically reusable, non-sterile, and come in adjustable thicknesses to match treatment needs. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their role in modifying radiation delivery rather than as standalone medical devices in some markets.
