iCAD to Present Positive Four-year Data on Xoft

iCAD, Inc. is presenting new positive data from its longestrunning non melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) clinical trial to-date at this year’s American Academy of Dermatology meeting. Results indicate that patients treated with the Xoft System for NMSC experienced good to excellent cosmesis with few reoccurrences to date.
The Xoft System is an isotope-free radiation treatment cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and CE marked in the EU for use anywhere in the body, including for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer, gynecological cancers and nonmelanoma skin cancer. It utilizes a proprietary miniaturized x-ray as the radiation source that delivers precise treatment directly to cancerous areas while sparing healthy tissue and organs. The Xoft System requires only minimal shielding and therefore does not require room redesign or construction investment. Minimal shielding also allows medical personnel to remain in the room with the patient during treatment. The mobility of the Xoft System makes it easy to treat patients at multiple locations and to easily store the system when not in use. Xoft is a wholly owned subsidiary of iCAD, Inc.
