摘要:
The present invention pertains to a device for detecting the position of radiation target points with an anchoring means for attachment to a patient reference system, especially to a stereotactic immobilization system, e.g., a head ring, and with a labeling means, arranged on the anchoring means, for at least one point of coordinates in various three-dimensional projections, in which case the labeling means consists of several computer-printed surface materials, which plot the point of coordinates in a three-dimensional manner.

The present invention pertains to a device for noninvasive, stereotactic immobilization in reproducible position with a head ring providing a firm reference system, a mask consisting of several parts attached to the head ring. The mask is individually adapted to the anatomical contours of a patient, and has mask parts connected with one another as well as with the reference system. The connections enable adjusting the relative position of the mask parts to one another.

The present invention pertains to a fixation pin for fixing a reference system, especially a head ring for stereotactic treatment, to bony structures, which pin has a shaft made of plastic material with an outside thread, a coupling shoulder for a screwdriver and a point holder, and it has a point, which is held by the point holder. The point has a conical front end, in which case the point is made of a semiprecious stone material.

The invention relates to a medical instrument comprising an instrument body (8), an instrument tip (5) and a tracking means (1,2, 4), characterized in that said instrument tip (5) is fitted with a touch-sensor (3) which detects a contact between said tip (5) and an object, for example a patient. It is preferably realized as an indicator device or pointer, in particular as a registering pointer for instrument tracking systems.

The accuracy of radiation therapy is enhanced with the blade collimator of the claimed invention. Particularly, this collimator includes a support device for supporting at least two sets of radiation attenuating blades in a single plane or layer. The blades are reciprocally movable within this support. Shaping of the therapy may be increased by constructing the blades to include a varying width increasing from the central blade toward the exterior blades.

The invention relates to a method for correcting MRI image distortion, in which a distortion correction procedure is carried out on an acquired MRI image data set (1) of a body region by graphical data processing, characterized in that: —after the MRI image data set (1) has been acquired, its distortion is determined by carrying out an image registration process for registering the acquired MRI image data set (1) to a previously available, less distorted or undistorted image data set (2) of substantially the same body region; —a transformation is determined from the image registration process; and —by applying the transformation to the MRI image data set (1), its distortion is corrected.
摘要:
The invention relates to a surgical instrument comprising a handle portion and a tip, wherein a tip sensor is provided on the handle portion. The tip sensor enables detection of when a tip is inserted into and/or removed from the handle. In addition, the tip sensor enables a navigation system to be notified when landmarks are probed with the surgical instrument, thereby ensuring accurate capture of the location of the landmark.

The present invention relates to a data processing method of determining a distribution of isolines to be used for displaying a radiation dose distribution in tissue of a patient, the steps of the method being executed by a computer and comprising: d) acquiring dose distribution data comprising dose distribution information describing a radiation dose distribution in an anatomical body part; e) acquiring display data comprising display information describing a predetermined display mode to be applied for displaying the dose distribution information; f) determining, based on the dose distribution data and the display data, isodose data comprising isodose information describing a distribution of is isolines to be used for displaying the dose distribution information.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a data processing method for determining a treatment plan for radiation therapy treatment of at least two spatially separate targets by means of a treatment device constituted to treat the at least two targets by means of one or more sub-beams during a treatment time, the one or more sub-beams constituting at least one treatment beam which is to pass through the at least two targets in accordance with a treatment plan during the treatment time, the treatment device being further constituted to allow for simultaneous treatment of the at least two targets by at least two of the sub-beams at least during a time interval during the treatment time.
