Axxent^® Balloon Applicator

A unique treatment solution for Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI), the Axxent Balloon Applicator is a key component of the Axxent eBx™ System. Axxent Balloon Applicators are available in multiple sizes and shapes to best fit the contour of the lumpectomy cavity. Inserted through a single incision in the breast, the balloon catheter provides a channel for the Axxent HDR X-ray Source to deliver high dose rate, low energy radiation directly to the lumpectomy site. The Axxent eBx System is an attractive alternative for physicians and patients desiring greater flexibility and patient comfort in breast cancer treatment.

• Applicator design includes exclusive drainage lumens, which allow for improved tissue conformity.
• Separate ports for drainage, saline fill and Axxent HDR X-ray Source insertion.
• Radiolucent balloon wall for improved visibility on planar film and in CT images.
