Materials are frequently used in high-energy radiation therapy in order to deliver the prescribed dose to the patient’s skin surface. Elasto-gel is easy to work with, reusable on the same patient, is mildly adhesive, and conforms exceptionally well to body contours. It may be easily cut with scissors to the desired size and shape. Standard backing is stretch cloth on one side and clear plastic on the other. The stretch backing may be removed by first moistening with a damp cloth and then peeling the cloth from the gel. Because of the self-adhesive nature of the gel pieces, they may be layered together for various thicknesses. Single patient use only. Not to be used on multiple patients. Density 1.20 gm.
