Radiotherapy Block Cutters

Radiotherapy Block Cutters from Huestis Medical are renowned as the worldwide industry standard for precision shielding.

Styro•former® and Compu•cutter® shielding block cutters cut foam block molds so that extremely precise alloy blocks can be made to shield patients during radiation treatment. More Compu•cutter® and Styro•former® block cutters are in use than all other shielding block mold cutters combined.

Huestis Medical is also the leading supplier of block cutting accessories and supplies.

Styro•former®

Styro•former® offers accurate, easy and fast cutting with minimal training. A handheld tracing stylus allows quick radiograph outlining to provide a smooth and efficient block cutting procedure.

Compu•cutter®
