The MOBETRON is intended for use as an Electron Beam source inside an Operating Room for Electron Beam IORT. Electron beam IORT (Intra-Operative Radiation Therapy) is the use of electron radiation during surgery to treat both malignant and benign tumors. The Mobetron is not intended for unrestricted beam production. Extensive beam testing should be done in a stray radiation shielded room or a strictly controlled area. MOBETRON S/N: 72
An assembly of devices designed to produce high-energy electrons to yield high-energy x-rays used for therapeutic applications, primarily to treat cancer. It provides a uniform radiation field of uniform intensity and predictable energy level, in a beam with well defined dimensions. The principle of operation is linear acceleration of electrons by means of electromagnetic (EM) microwaves. The output is used as a treatment beam on the patient, either directly or after passing a suitable target. The system typically includes signal analysis and display devices, patient and device supports, and software.
