Xstrahl 100
The Xstrahl 100 low energy X-ray treatment system is ideal for treating a wide range of superficial skin cancers, such as basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. It can also be used to treat benign dermatological conditions such as psoriasis.
Thanks to its leading design, treatment using the Xstrahl 100 provides an all-round positive experience for every patient. The flexibility of the unit means that the treatment is less stressful from the outset and thanks to its unique design the treatment is pain-free, with no surgical scarring. The low energy means pinpoint accuracy, so healthy skin isn’t affected. The fast treatment means a large reduction in time and impact on the patient’s day-to-day life, whilst providing a highly effective treatment for superficial skin conditions.
The unit’s small footprint enables installation in a compact space, and its mobility makes for better use of space within the treatment room. Its low energy and short exposure times means the treatment room requires less shielding compared to a high energy linear accelerator.
The range of movement in the treatment arm enables smooth adjustment and easy set up for each treatment field. Its flexibility makes it particularly suited for treating lesions that are difficult to access, such as the head and neck; and without compromising patient comfort.

And with no surgical scarring, the cosmetic results are excellent. The Xstrahl 100 is supplied with four 15 cm FSD and two 25 cm FSD open clinical applicators.
Xstrahl is devoted to ensuring you have the best applicators for your needs, and so we offer bespoke applicator creation on request, additional standardized applicators, focal spot applicators, and our new range of oval applicators, designed to be used between the boundary of the lip and facial skin.
The applicators are interlocked in the head of the treatment machine, ensuring any exposure may only be delivered with the correct applicator attached. The applicators are manufactured from stainless steel and have clear Perspex viewing ends, which allow the radiographers to accurately position the applicator to achieve skin apposition prior to treatment.
