Solid State Generator
The BSD 500 microwave hyperthermia system is equipped with a 915 MHz power generator. The solid state generator has 8 channels which can be independently adjusted in phase and amplitude.
Up to 24 Interstitial Applicators
The 8 channel generator feeds into a 3 way power splitter allowing up to 24 applicators to be connected. Each antenna produces a radiant energy zone that can be arranged to shape a heat zone specific to the tumor.
Up to 400 watts
The system itself is portable, space efficient and produces up to 400 watts of microwave energy in a single channel mode and up to 60 watts per channel in the eight channel mode. A high resolution touch-screen display is used for treatment planning, setup and monitoring during the procedure.
Treats Recurrent Cancer
Superficial hyperthermia is used to non-invasively treat recurrent or progressive cancerous tumors located within a few centimeters of the surface of the body. Interstitial hyperthermia is used to treat recurrent or progressive cancerous tumors located below the skins surface.
- Portable
- No shielding room needed
- FDA Approved for palliative treatment of certain tumors
- Delivers both superficial and interstitial hyperthermia
