RADGIL2® is an X-Ray irradiator specifically designed to prevent Transfusion-Associated Graft-versus-Host Disease (TA-GVHD), a rare but often fatal reaction caused by the donors’ Lymphocytes-T when grafted into a recipient with a transfused blood product.
X-Ray irradiation is the recognized and safe method for TA-GVHD prevention in spite of the historical use of caesium-137 (137Cs) for the same purpose.
137Cs irradiators present serious problems including hazardous radioisotopes that remain active and hazardous for decades. They also require specifically skilled operators and extra safety measures.
RADGIL2®, on the other hand, is completely safe, easy to use, fast and extremely effective.
RADGIL2® is also useful for research applications including the irradiation of cells and tissues, bone marrow ablation on lab animals, and other research lab purposes.
The standard RADGIL2® configuration includes a rotating system for blood bags with two types of plastic canisters.
The canisters have 3 and 4 compartments for up to six blood bags. The required X-Ray dose can easily be programmed by adjusting the working parameters.
The estimated dose will appear on screen and, once irradiation starts, a progress bar will show the elapsed time.
