摘要:
A system for positioning a patient on a treatment couchtop for SBRT is provided. The system includes a patient support panel and at least one positioning/fixation component for releasable mounting on the patient support panel at a desired position to immobilize a portion of the patient's body. The patient support panel includes a pair of longitudinally extending side rails having a series of longitudinally spaced indexing apertures for receipt of a locking bar for mounting a positioning/fixation component thereon at a discrete index position. The at least one positioning component includes a pair of clamping mechanisms for releasably securing that component to the side rails at any longitudinal position along the side rails.

摘要:
A system and method for providing radiation therapy to a patient is disclosed. The system includes at least one RFID tagged component, e.g., a patient positioning device, to be used when the patient is to be given radiation therapy treatment. The at least one component is specifically selected for use with the patient. The RFID tag holds information relevant to the patient. The tag is interrogated by a reader to produce a signal used by an associated computer system to verify the patient and component location and presence in the room where the treatment is to be given. The system and method enables one to determine the location of each patient, selected facility personnel and all the components for a particular patient's treatment In addition the system and method enables one to determine the time the patient and/or staff member and/or component spends at a given location for a particular treatment.
