Who Will Benefit?
SXRT is ideally suited to patients who are not good surgical candidates because of:
- Co-morbidity or age
- The risk of inactivity or immobility after surgery
- Anticoagulation
- Surgical complexity with skin grafts and flaps
- A chance of an inferior cosmetic outcome after surgery
- Lower leg location
- Cancers on the nose
- Incomplete surgical margins after surgery
- Personal preference
