We are passionate about targeted cancer care expertly tailored to meet patients’ personalized needs.
We carefully designed the Elekta Xoft® Axxent® Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx®) System® to empower physicians with full confidence to precisely and effectively treat cancer and enable patients to live healthy, high-quality lives.
The versatile Xoft® Axxent® Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx®) System® utilizes breakthrough electronic brachytherapy technology to provide expanded treatment options for a range of cancers. With Elekta Xoft, highly focused therapeutic radiation of the disease target is possible in a minimally shielded setting, while sparing surrounding healthy tissue.
Elekta Xoft may not be available in all markets. The Xoft technology is supported by a growing body of evidence for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer, non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), and gynecological cancers. Emerging applications include colorectal, prostate, and pancreatic cancers. Our commitment to clinical excellence using this innovative technology is driven by the numerous, valuable benefits that it offers to patients, physicians, and health care institutions.
The term brachytherapy means "near therapy," or bringing the source of radiation close to the tissue that is targeted. The goal is to direct the radiation dose to the size and shape of the cancerous area, sparing healthy tissue and organs. This is contrasted with external beam, or linear accelerator technology, which delivers treatment from outside the body.
