The low-dose radiation is intended to destroy keloid-causing non-malignant tumour cells, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma without the use of anaesthesia, risk of infection, scarring or the need for reconstructive plastic surgery.

Sensus intends to introduce SRT-100 into the country’s market in the fourth quarter of this year through its Chinese partner Chindex Medical, which is a division of Fosun Pharma International.

The device will focus on prevention and treatment of keloids associated with Cesarean sections (C-sections).

Sensus Healthcare CEO Joe Sardano said: “CFDA clearance of the SRT-100 for the treatment and prevention of keloids is an important milestone for Sensus, and a step forward for healthcare in China, especially women’s health.
