A mobile orthovoltage therapeutic x-ray system is a device assembly that generates low-energy x-rays for treating skin conditions such as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, psoriasis, or keloids. It operates using a tube voltage typically between 100 kV and 500 kV and is designed to be moved on wheels for use in clinical settings like radiotherapy suites.
This category includes systems that are intended for therapeutic radiation delivery and are used topically or superficially, often paired with various applicators to target specific skin areas. As a mobile system, it is regulated as a medical device based on its intended use and energy output, with classification depending on the jurisdiction and specific design features.
