Elasto-gel is designed to adhere to the user's skin and provide a similar density to human tissue. Elasto-Gel and other similar materials have often been used to augment the radiation received at the surface of the skin and different depths of tissue. This product is designed for skin contact and is not an irritant. Elasto-gel is easy to work with, reusable on the same user, is mildly adhesive, and conforms exceptionally well to body contours.  It may be easily cut with a scissors to the desired size and shape.  Standard backing is stretch cloth on one side and clear plastic on the other.  The stretch backing may be removed by first moistening with a damp cloth and then peeling the cloth from the gel.  Because of the self-adhesive nature of the gel pieces, they may be layered together for various thicknesses. This product is designed for skin contact and does not include latex or any other known irritants.
