High resolution monitor providing easy access to user control systems for improved patient monitoring and system control.
Ease of Operation

MA-151: mini-dual ridge wave guide applicators have an aperture of 4 x 5 cm and individual heating patterns approximately 2.5 x 2.5 cm by 2 cm deep. Advanced annular phased array principles create a central focusing of energy, which significantly overcomes the penetration losses of the energy radiated into the body.

MA-100: side loaded wave guide applicators have a 10 × 13 cm aperture and a heating pattern approximately 8 × 10 cm by 2.5 cm deep.

MA-120: side-loaded wave guide applicator has an 18 × 24 cm aperture and a heating pattern of approximately 12.5 × 19.5 cm by 2.5 cm deep.

Applicators available in multiple configurations to treat a range of tumor sizes and locations.
Focused Treatment Area

Provides rock-steady placement of Hyperthermia applicators at any angle with a total reach of 104 cm (41″).
Solid Performance

Track up to 8 independent temperature probes for accurate thermal dosing. An integrated temperature well ensures easy and accurate temperature calibration.
Thermal Monitoring

The Thermal Calibration Well can be used to quickly verify probe accuracy prior to treatment
Ease of Use

Interstitial hyperthermia delivers heat directly to the site of the tumor via brachytherapy catheter. The microwave power delivered to the antennas (available as an optional kit) can be adjusted in amplitude and phase to conform the heating pattern to the tumor.
Versatility

The semi-rigid MA-251 microwave interstitial applicators can be inserted into 15.5 gauge (5 French) radiation implant catheters. The heating pattern is ellipsoidal and approximately 4.5 cm in length along the applicator shaft with heating to the applicator tip.
Brachytherapy

The BSD‑500 offers two USB ports for the offloading of patient records and keyboard/mouse. The system includes a wireless color printer. (model subject to change)
915 MHz Eight-Channel Power Amplifier Multi-channel solid state amplifier producing an available 480 Watts of RF power, (60 watts per channel) independently adjustable phase and amplitude.
Focused Power

Provides constant volume water supply to the Applicator Bolus with temperature range of 5 °C to 45 °C.
