摘要:
A system and method for calibrating and positioning a radiation therapy treatment table with a high degree of precision and accuracy. The system and method comprising a treatment table for use with a radiation therapy system with radiographic indexing markers embedded or inlaid in the patient treatment table. The radiographic indexing markers having a density different from density of the table material, or a radio-frequency or magnetic contrasting matter, something that the imaging system and detector of the radiation therapy system can detect, so that when scanned, with or without a patient or phantom on the table, the precise location of the patient treatment table in the x, y and z planes is known. The radiographic indexing markers may also have the ability to be visually seen by the technician, doctor, physicist or other health care provider conducting the procedure. This is important so that the table may be reconstructed, alone or with a phantom on it, by the radiation therapy system software, providing a very good indication of where the table top is prior to treatment.
摘要:
Systems and methods for utilizing remote access to a radiation therapy system. Remote access to the radiation therapy system can assist in providing quality assurance processes, service and maintenance procedures, patient monitoring, and statistical analysis.

摘要:
A system for monitoring the operation of a medical device including a movable portion and a controller for controlling the movable portion. The system includes a motion verification device directly coupled to the movable portion. The system is configured to determine motion data for the motion verification device. In one method of operation, the method includes moving the movable portion, determining motion data for the motion verification device, and monitoring the motion data.
摘要:
The present invention provides a positioning device for radiation therapy equipment. In particularly, a stereotactic upper body fixation and positioning device for use in conjunction with a patient positioning couch and delivery system of a radiation therapy machine to provide precise, verifiable, and adjustable positioning in the three rotational axes of movement referred to as roll, pitch and yaw.
摘要:
A system and method of delivering a radiation therapy treatment plan to a patient. The treatment plan is delivered using a radiation therapy system including a moveable support for supporting a patient, a gantry moveable relative to the support and supporting a radiation source and multi-leaf collimator for modulating the radiation source. The support and gantry are moved during delivery of the treatment plan.

摘要:
A patient support device for a radiation therapy treatment system and a method of manufacturing the same. The device includes a support having an upper surface and a lower surface and a fixture hole configuration that receives a patient fixation device. The fixture hole configuration includes at least one recess and reinforcing material positioned inside at least a portion of the at least one recess. The device may also include a lower support having an upper surface that includes at least one channel. Flat flex cable used to operate the patient support device is positioned within the at least one channel.
