Innovative SRT-100 Vision (IG-SRT) and SRT Vision Technologies allow dermatologists to treat non-melanoma skin cancer without surgery or patient downtime
May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month and Sensus Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRTS), a medical device company specializing in highly effective, non-invasive, minimally-invasive and cost-effective treatments for oncological and non-oncological skin conditions, is leveraging a wide range of activities to draw attention to the importance of prevention, early detection and treatment of the most common form of cancer that affects millions of people worldwide.
Throughout the month of May, Sensus Healthcare is actively promoting skin cancer awareness through educational newsletters, social media campaigns and collaborations with dermatologists and other healthcare professionals. The Company also offers valuable resources and insights on its website to empower individuals to recognize the early warning signs of skin cancer and understand the benefits of non-invasive treatment.
“With the number of skin cancer cases on the rise, awareness and access to patient-friendly, non-invasive treatment options are more critical than ever,” said Joe Sardano, CEO of Sensus Healthcare. “Our IG-SRT and SRT technologies exemplify our commitment to providing healthcare professionals with the tools they need to effectively treat skin cancer while prioritizing patient comfort and preserving healthy tissue.”
IG-SRT and SRT-100 Vision, Sensus’ flagship products that provide effective, non-invasive treatment options for non-melanoma skin cancers, are at the forefront of the Company’s solutions to help patients achieve optimal outcomes with minimal side effects and no downtime. IG-SRT delivers precise, targeted radiation while the SRT-100 Vision integrates high-frequency ultrasound imaging for a precise treatment and an improved patient experience.
In conjunction with its focus on skin cancer awareness and education, and to expand access to its technologies, Sensus Healthcare offers a range of acquisition options such as its Fair Deal Agreement. This shared-revenue program has enjoyed considerable success since being launched just one year ago. The Fair Deal Agreement requires no upfront capital expenditure by a dermatology practice and is structured to remove any financial barrier to procuring state-of-the-art treatment solutions while enhancing patient outcomes and satisfaction.
Sensus invites investors, providers and other stakeholders to join its awareness efforts by participating in initiatives and helping to spread awareness about skin cancer. Together, we can make meaningful strides in promoting early detection and improving outcomes for those affected by skin cancer.

Tips to Avoid Skin Cancer
While family history can play a role in the development of melanoma skin cancer, it is often caused by overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun or tanning beds. Although melanoma is the most aggressive form of skin cancer, it is also one of the most preventable. By taking simple precautions, you can significantly reduce your risk.
- Limit Sun Exposure: The best way to prevent melanoma is to reduce exposure to UV radiation. Try to avoid the sun during peak hours, typically between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV rays are the strongest.
- Wear Sunscreen: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and reapply every two hours, or more frequently if swimming or sweating. Sunscreen helps protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
- Seek Shade: When spending time outdoors, stay in the shade as much as possible. This provides a natural barrier from the sun’s rays.
- Wear Protective Clothing: Hats, sunglasses, and long-sleeved shirts made of tightly woven fabric can reduce direct sun exposure. Special sun-protective clothing is also available.
- Avoid Tanning Beds: Tanning beds emit harmful UV radiation, increasing the risk of melanoma and other skin cancers. Choose self-tanning products for a safer alternative.
- Perform Regular Skin Checks: Regularly examine your skin for unusual moles, spots or growths. Pay attention to changes in existing moles, such as size, shape or color. And remember to see your dermatologist every year for a full-body skin cancer screening.
