Advantages of SenoRx Contura over Mammosite Breast Brachytherapy system.
April 4, 2008
Analysis by: Charles Bennett, Radiation Oncologist ,A new player in the growing Breast Brachytherapy field | www.senorx.com
SenoRx has released the Contura system which provides a superior system when compared to the Mammosite Breast Brachytherapy System. These advantages include: 1. Better dosimetry, opening the door for more patients to be treated by avoiding the elimination of some patients due to skin spacing and chest wall considerations. 2. Better reimbursement due to the use of multiple dwell positions used versus just one with the Mammosite system. 3 Ability to drain fluid collection via drainage ports of the Contura system that are not available with the Mammosite system. The SenoRx system is poised to take a large percentage of the market share away from Mammosite.

Analysis by: Louis Rocco, System Director of Purchasing ,Mail order drugs flying off shelves | www.gazette.com
I could not agree more that people should have a choice and maybe the pricing markey is the US will finally drop after how it see it will work all pharmacies across the country. The manufacturers need to be held responsible for this issue, they caused it with raising prices and making more of a profit. They should join in with the oil industry these two make a good pair on how to rep off the consumer.
