Photon Therapy Devices
.decimal offers a variety of custom devices for photon treatments, including IMRT modulators (compensator-based IMRT); custom-milled uniform thickness bolus using rigid wax or flexible silicone (when conventional bolus materials prove problematic due to irregular surface anatomy); and GRID therapy for large bulky and advanced tumors. We also offer full block room services including TBI blocks, photon blocks, and almost any custom device or widget you can dream up. Product Page

Model FlexiBol - Custom Bolus
Over the years, radiation therapy’s imaging, planning, and delivery technologies have advanced rapidly. However, one staple tool – the bolus – has lagged behind … until now, that is. Our customized FlexiBol devices are high-performance, patient-specific silicone boluses that are fit for the modern era. 510(k) Cleared. FlexiBol received 510(k) clearance in 2021. Adapts to Changes During the Course of ...

Blue Wax Uniform Thickness Bolus
We offer a patient-specific radiation therapy bolus. A bolus is an important tool to bring dose towards the patient surface, but often a patient’s irregular anatomy makes it hard to eliminate air gaps using conventional flat sheet bolus materials. Tissue expanders, surgical defects, noses, and scalps are a few examples where daily reproducibility can be difficult and time-consuming. .decimal custom boluses are precision milled from a tissue ...

Custom Blocks / TBI
The need for custom photon blocks has become rare with the advent of multileaf collimators (MLC). And for those clinics that offer TBI, it is typically a low volume treatment. To carry the safety and regulatory overhead for an in-house block/mold room for low volume devices may not be cost effective for a clinic, not to mention that storage and office space in most clinics is at a premium. As a result, many radiation therapy clinics have elected to shut ...

GRID Therapy
Grid radiation therapy, using the megavoltage X-ray beam, has been proven to be an effective method for the management of large and bulky malignant tumors. This treatment modality is also known as Spatially Fractionated Radiation Therapy (SFRT). In this treatment technique, a grid block converted the open radiation field into a series of pencil beams. It is based on the concept of delivering non-uniform, high dose, pencil beam radiation through a ...

Compensators / Intensity Modulators
There are many advantages to the static delivery of a photon compensator. Because the entire tumor is receiving dose simultaneously, treatment times and monitor units are reduced significantly. This is especially beneficial for very large fields equating to a shorter time on the table and less radiation for your patient. Compensators are not for every patient, but when the right case presents itself, they are a great tool to have. Our ...
