Abstract: Disclosed is a device for contact radiotherapy, comprising a set of applicators, wherein each applicator comprises a hollow spherical head, with different diameters, the external surface of which is able to be in contact with a cavity of a living tissue and the internal surface of which defines an internal space able to receive a source of x-rays, with at least one area of the head is intended to have x-rays pass through it, and the thickness of said area depends on the diameter of the head configured so that the dose of x-rays produced at the external surface is between 18 and 22 gray. Also disclosed is a system for contact radiotherapy comprising said device. The disclosed device and system apply particularly to per-operative radiotherapy, in that the irradiation is produced in contact with the ablation bed of the tumour, in particular in the breast, during the operation.

Abstract: A multifunction clamp for medical use includes two jaws articulated by a pivot and controlled by the practitioner from a gripping region. Each jaw (7, 8) includes, on its internal surface, a recess such that the two recesses form a hollow when the jaws (7, 8) are together, and each jaw (7, 8) has on its internal surface, at least one series of transverse striations, the series of striations being complementary to interfit when the jaws (7, 8) are together. Each jaw (7, 8) has at least one claw at its distal end, oriented toward the other jaw (7, 8).
