Introducing the custom-fit 3D printed bolus

Elevating patient care in radiation therapy

Streamline and simplify care delivery

Every bolus is directly designed from DICOM treatment plan data with radiation therapy (RT) structure files provided by your radiation therapy professional. There’s no manual fabrication, molds, nor additional design work from clinicians.

Enhance the patient experience

Accurate anatomical contouring, direct printed using flexible material, is intended to improve patient comfort and ease of placement. When cleaned and maintained according to the Ricoh 3D for Healthcare Bolus Instructions for Use, the bolus can be used repeatedly on the same patient throughout a treatment cycle, allowing the clinician to focus on providing a predictable and consistent patient experience.
