Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an X-ray inspection auxiliary tool kit and an X-ray inspection auxiliary tool, and more particularly to a member that is provided on an imaging table and is used to set a subject in a predetermined posture.
Background
An auxiliary tool is used as needed in X-ray examination such as radiography (radiography) and bone density measurement (bone density measurement). The assisting tool is a member used to set a subject (particularly, a limb) in a predetermined posture.
For example, in bone densitometry of lumbar vertebrae (lumbar), a subject lies down with the subject lying up on a photographing table (bed). In this case, in order to extend the lumbar vertebrae and reduce the degree of flexion of the lumbar vertebrae, a posture in which the knees of both legs are bent is required. In order to naturally bring about the posture of knee flexion, the lumbar measurement aid is disposed below both knees of the subject. In bone mineral density measurement of the femur (femur), the subject lies on the imaging table with the subject facing upward. In this case, it is required to turn the feet inward so that the toe ends of the feet are close to each other. In order to maintain the formed twisted posture, a femoral measurement aid for accommodating and holding the distal portion of both feet is used.
In order to support both feet of the lumbar measuring aid, it is desirable to prepare a pad member for raising and reinforcing the pad member so as to be able to support the height (leg length) of the subject. On the other hand, although the femoral bone examination aid for maintaining the posture of turning both feet medially needs to be thin due to the limitation of the space on the imaging table, it is difficult to support the femoral bone examination aid alone, and it is desirable to be able to easily increase the size in the depth direction when the space is sufficient.
Further, patent document 1 discloses a multifunction-type auxiliary tool. Patent document 2 discloses a divided type auxiliary tool. When the divided type auxiliary tool is used, the two parts constituting the divided type auxiliary tool are combined.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, embodiments will be described based on the drawings.
(1) Brief description of the embodiments
An auxiliary tool kit of an embodiment includes a first auxiliary tool, a second auxiliary tool, and a coupling member. The first auxiliary tool is a tool provided on the bed for bringing the subject into the first posture during the X-ray examination of the first part of the subject. The second auxiliary tool is a tool that is provided on the bed to set the subject in the second posture during the X-ray examination of the second part of the subject. The joining member is a member for joining the first auxiliary tool and the second auxiliary tool as needed. In the X-ray examination of a first part of a subject, a first individual use mode in which a first auxiliary tool is used alone or a first combination use mode in which a first combination is formed by additionally combining a second auxiliary tool with the first auxiliary tool can be selected.
According to the above configuration, at the time of the X-ray examination of the first region, any one of a mode (first single body use mode) in which the first auxiliary tool is used alone and a mode (first combination use mode) in which a first combination body configured by combining the first auxiliary tool with the second auxiliary tool is used can be selected. The joining member is used when the two auxiliary tools are joined. For example, in the case where the height of the subject is high, the first coupling system, that is, the auxiliary tool having a large size is selected.
According to the embodiment, since the second auxiliary tool performs the sub-function of assisting the first auxiliary tool in addition to the main function, the number of parts of the whole auxiliary tool kit can be reduced compared to an auxiliary tool kit in which any one auxiliary tool does not have the sub-function. The auxiliary tool kit may be constituted by three or more auxiliary tools. Included in the concept of X-ray examination are radiography, bone density measurement, and the like.
In the embodiment, a second individual use mode in which the second auxiliary tool is used alone or a second combined use mode in which the first auxiliary tool is combined with the second auxiliary tool in addition can be selected when the X-ray examination of the second part of the subject is performed. With this configuration, it is possible to select either the mode in which the second auxiliary tool is used alone (the second individual use mode) or the mode in which the second combined body is used (the second combined body use mode) in the X-ray examination of the second region. Since the first auxiliary tool performs a sub-function of assisting the second tool in addition to the main function, the amount of the whole auxiliary tool kit can be further reduced.
In an embodiment, the first auxiliary tool as a whole has a cushioning property, and the second auxiliary tool is made of a hard material. According to this configuration, the first joined body and the second joined body can be configured by a method of combining a soft auxiliary tool and a hard auxiliary tool.
In an embodiment, the first bonded body is a vertical stacked body including a first auxiliary tool and a second auxiliary tool disposed below the first auxiliary tool, and the second bonded body is a vertical stacked body including a second auxiliary tool and a first auxiliary tool disposed behind the second auxiliary tool. In the upper and lower stacked bodies, the second auxiliary tool functions as a reinforcing member. In the front-rear laminated body, the first auxiliary tool functions as a depth increasing member. The upper and lower are relative concepts. The same applies to the front and the rear. For example, the side closer to the trunk of the subject is the front side, and the side farther from the trunk of the subject is the rear side.
In an embodiment, in the first combination, the first auxiliary tool has an upright posture and the second auxiliary tool has a prone posture, and in the second combination, the second auxiliary tool has an upright posture and the second auxiliary tool has a lateral-falling state. The upright posture is a posture in which the original function of the first auxiliary tool is exhibited, and the prone posture is a posture in which the surface (the front surface of the second auxiliary tool) exhibiting the original function of the second auxiliary tool faces downward. The standing posture is a regular posture of the second auxiliary tool, in other words, a posture in which the front surface of the second auxiliary tool faces in a correct direction. The horizontal posture is a state in which the first auxiliary tool is rotated from the upright posture and is tilted down.
In an embodiment, the first auxiliary tool has a first face facing downward in the upright posture and forward in the reclined posture, the second auxiliary tool has a second face facing rearward in the upright posture and upward in the prone posture, and the first face and the second face are combined in the first combination body and the second combination body. Each surface is not necessarily a plane but may be a hypothetical plane.
In an embodiment, the second auxiliary tool has a holding structure for receiving and holding two distant side parts of two feet of the subject in the standing posture. The second aid is typically used when measuring bone density of the femur.
In an embodiment, the second auxiliary tool has a plurality of legs that contact the bed in the prone position, and a gap is generated between the plurality of legs. According to this configuration, the second auxiliary tool can be lifted by inserting a hand into the gap.
In an embodiment, the holding structure includes two receiving portions for receiving the two distal portions, two bands for fixing the two distal portions, and a plurality of band insertion structures for selecting the height of each band. According to this structure, the portions on the respective distal sides are fixed by the bands. At that time, the height of the installation belt can be changed according to the size of the portion on the remote side.
In the embodiment, the first position is the lumbar spine, the first posture is the posture of bending the knee by bending upward, the second position is the femur, and the first posture is the posture of bending upward and twisting both feet to the medial side. Other parts such as the forearm may be the examination part.
The auxiliary tool for X-ray examination of the embodiment comprises two receiving parts for receiving parts on two far sides of two feet of a person to be examined, two belts for fixing the parts on the two far sides, a plurality of belt insertion structures for selecting the height of each belt, and a combination member for additionally combining other auxiliary tools to form a combination body.
In the embodiment, a mark simulating the direction of the foot is provided in each housing portion or in the vicinity of each housing portion. The upper and lower parts of the auxiliary tool can be correctly identified when the auxiliary tool is set according to the marks, and in addition, the parts at two far sides can be correctly inserted into the two accommodating parts.
(2) Detailed description of the embodiments
Fig. 1 shows a first example of use of the auxiliary tool kit according to the embodiment. The bone densitometer 10 as an X-ray examination apparatus is an apparatus for measuring bone density of lumbar vertebrae (lumbar), femur (femur), forearm bone (forearmbone) (radius), ulna (ulna)) and the like. Fig. 1 shows a case where the bone density of the femur is measured. A subject 16 having an upward posture is laid on the imaging table 12 functioning as a bed. The auxiliary tool kit 14 is provided below the knee of the subject 16. The auxiliary tool kit 14 includes a first auxiliary tool 30 and a second auxiliary tool 32, which are stacked one on top of the other in fig. 1. That is, the first auxiliary tool 30 is provided on the second auxiliary tool 32, thereby forming the upper and lower stacked bodies 14A as the first bonded body. The back surfaces of the knees of both feet of the subject 16 are supported by the upper and lower layered bodies 14A, and a posture for bending both knees is formed and maintained in the subject.
The first auxiliary tool 30 is an auxiliary tool for lumbar vertebra examination, i.e., its main function is to support below the knee during lumbar vertebra examination. The subsidiary function is to be coupled to the second aid tool 32 and to aid the function thereof at the time of the femur examination. The first auxiliary tool 30 can be used alone at the time of examination of the lumbar vertebrae. For example, in the case of a subject with a high height (leg length), the upper and lower layered body 14A is configured by coupling the first auxiliary tool 30 and the second auxiliary tool 32, and the upper and lower layered body 14A is used (first coupling body use mode). On the other hand, in the case of a short (short-legged) subject, the first auxiliary tool 30 is used alone (first single use mode).
The second auxiliary tool 32 is an auxiliary tool for the femoral bone examination, that is, it has a main function of holding a portion (foot) including the distal side of the ankle in both feet at the time of the femoral bone examination (hereinafter, referred to as "distal side portion" according to circumstances). At this time, a twisted state is formed in which the two toes are brought close to each other. A second auxiliary tool 32 is used in order to form and maintain this state. The second assisting tool 32 has a secondary function of being coupled to the first assisting tool 30 and assisting the function thereof at the time of lumbar vertebra examination. The second aid 32 can also be used alone in the examination of the femur. For example, when there is a certain space between the distal portion of the subject on the imaging table and the edge of the imaging table 12, the front-rear laminate is formed by combining the first auxiliary tool 30 and the second auxiliary tool 32 (second combined body use mode). On the other hand, in the case where the space is insufficient, the second auxiliary tool 32 is used alone (second single use mode).
Since the two auxiliary tools 30 and 32 have a sub-function as a plan changing function (a size enlarging function) in addition to the main function, the amount of components and the number of components can be reduced by half compared to the case where a special auxiliary tool kit for use in a lumbar vertebra examination in which the use mode can be changed and a special auxiliary tool kit for use in a femoral bone examination in which the use mode can be changed are separately prepared. The first auxiliary tool 30 and the second auxiliary tool 32 will be described in detail later.
The bone density measuring apparatus 10 is composed of a lower part 18, an upper part 22, and a connecting part 20. The lower portion 18 has an X-ray generator 24, the X-ray generator 24 having an X-ray tube 26. X-rays 27 are generated by the X-ray tube 26. Which is a fan-shaped beam expanding in a fan-like manner. The fan beam is mechanically scanned in the left-right direction (direction passing through fig. 1) of the subject. Thereby, a two-dimensional measurement area is formed. The upper part 22 is provided with an X-ray detector 28. Which is composed of a plurality of X-ray sensors aligned in a row according to a fan beam. The X-ray generator 24 and the X-ray detector 28 are mechanically scanned together. The position of the subject 16 is adjusted so that the lumbar vertebrae enter the two-dimensional measurement region at the time of the lumbar vertebra examination. The position of the femur (specifically, such that the bone end of the femur enters the two-dimensional measurement region) and the subject 16 are adjusted during the examination of the femur. The forearm is placed on the imaging table 12 during forearm examination. Auxiliary tools are then also utilized as needed.
The imaging table 12 is a device used for X-ray imaging. In the configuration shown in fig. 1, the imaging table 12 and the bone density measurement device 10 are separate bodies, and these may be integrated. The X-ray can be scanned in the axial direction of the body of the subject 16.
Fig. 2 shows a second example of use of the auxiliary tool kit according to the embodiment. Fig. 2 shows a state in the femoral examination. The subject is placed on the imaging table 12 in a tilted-up posture. Both distal side portions of the subject 16 are held by the auxiliary tool kit 14. The auxiliary tool kit 14 is configured as a front-rear laminated body 14B in fig. 2. The front-rear laminated body 14B is composed of a second auxiliary tool 32 in an upright posture and a first auxiliary tool 30 provided on the rear side thereof in a lateral posture. The second auxiliary tool 32 can be used alone, but if the front and rear laminated bodies 14B are configured, the depth can be increased and the standing posture of the second auxiliary tool 32 can be naturally maintained. That is, the second auxiliary tool 32 can be made self-supporting before the holding of the distal side portions by the second auxiliary tool 32.
When the imaging table 12 has a large size (reference numeral 34) and a space between an end of the distal side portion and an edge of the imaging table 12 is relatively large, the front and rear laminated bodies 14B are arranged. On the other hand, when the subject 16 is high or when the imaging table 12 is small in size (see reference numeral 36), the space from the end of the distal portion to the edge of the imaging table 12 is small, and the front and rear laminated bodies 14B cannot be arranged in this case. In that case the second auxiliary tool 32 is used alone.
Fig. 3 shows the upper and lower layered bodies 14A. In fig. 3, the x direction is a direction parallel to the body axis of the subject, the y direction is the left-right direction of the subject, and the z direction is the vertical direction, i.e., the up-down direction.
The first auxiliary tool 30 is in an upright posture in fig. 3. The xz section (vertical section) is trapezoidal, and the shape is the same at each position in the y direction. The xy section is rectangular and increases from top to bottom. The first auxiliary tool 30 has six faces 38a, 38b, 38c, 38d, 38e, 38 f. In its upright position, the faces 38a, 38b are inclined faces and the faces 38c, 38d are vertical faces. In its upright position, the faces 38e and 38f are parallel to the xy-plane. The first auxiliary tool 30 is soft and has cushioning properties. The xz section of the first auxiliary tool 30 may be made triangular or rectangular, or may be shaped like a triangle, trapezoid, or rectangle.
The second auxiliary tool 32 functions as a lifting reinforcement member for lifting the height of the surface 38e of the first auxiliary tool 30 in the upper and lower stacked bodies 14A. Which is used as a secondary function of the second auxiliary tool 32. The second auxiliary tool 32 is in a prone position in fig. 3. The second auxiliary tool 32 has five surfaces (including imaginary surfaces) 42a, 42b, 42c, 42d, and 42e, and further has a holding structure 40 corresponding to a downward surface in the prone posture. The holding structure 40 is a structure that accommodates and holds both distal portions of the subject when the second auxiliary tool 32 is normally used, i.e., in its standing posture. The content of which will be described in detail later. The main body of the second auxiliary tool 32 is made of a hard material such as resin which does not deform even when it is used. On the other hand, the first auxiliary tool 30 is composed of a cushioning material that is deformable in its use. That is, the first auxiliary tool 30 and the second auxiliary tool 32 are different from each other in a hard or soft face.
In the second auxiliary tool 32, a plurality of legs are provided so as to surround the holding structure 40, and the plurality of legs are in contact with the upper surface of the imaging table in the prone posture. In the plurality of feet, gaps 44, 46 are created between adjacent feet. When the second auxiliary member is lifted, both hands of the subject are inserted into a predetermined gap. The second auxiliary tool 32 is made of a hard material such as resin. The second auxiliary tool 32 has a plate-like shape as a whole.
In the first auxiliary tool, the width in the x direction is, for example, 45cm, and the height in the z direction is, for example, 15 cm. The width in the x-direction varies in the z-direction, for example from 32cm to 28 cm. θ 1 is, for example, 40 degrees or more and 90 degrees or less, and may be 60 degrees. The height (thickness) of the second auxiliary tool 32 in the z direction is, for example, 10 cm.
Fig. 4 shows a process of forming the upper and lower stacked bodies. The first auxiliary tool 30 is stacked on the second auxiliary tool 32. In the upper and lower stacked bodies, the second auxiliary tool 32 functions as a lifting reinforcement member. In the lumbar examination, a main function of the first auxiliary tool 30 is to support the part below the knee or the calf (calf) of the subject. The first auxiliary tool 30 is used alone without being lifted up due to the short height of the subject or other reasons.
In the first auxiliary tool 30, the inclination angle (angle with respect to the x direction) of the surfaces 38a, 38b is θ 1, and the inclination angle (angle with respect to the x direction) of the surface 42a of the second auxiliary tool 32 is θ 2.θ 1 is the same as θ 2. The face 38a is joined to the face 42a to form a flat surface. On the other hand, in the front-rear stacked body, the second auxiliary tool 32 sets the face 42a downward to the upright posture, and the first auxiliary tool 30 sets the face 38a downward to the horizontal posture. In this case, the surfaces 28a and 42a form the bottom surface of the front and rear laminates as a whole.
The first auxiliary tool 30 is constituted by a sponge 48 having cushioning properties or elasticity, and a cover 50 covering the entire sponge 48. The sponge 48 essentially defines the shape of the first auxiliary tool 30. The cover 50 is made of, for example, cloth.
Fig. 5 shows a first auxiliary tool 30. In its upright position, two face fasteners 52, 54 are provided on the downward face 38 f. These are detachably coupled to two surface fasteners (described later) provided on the second auxiliary tool 32. The plurality of face fasteners in a joined relationship correspond to a joining component or joining mechanism. Other coupling mechanisms such as mechanical snap, bolt, etc. may be utilized.
Fig. 6 shows a front-back laminated body 14B. In the x direction, the side close to the trunk of the subject is the front side, and the side far from the trunk of the subject is the rear side. In the front-rear stacked body 14B, the first auxiliary tool 30 in the horizontal posture is coupled to the rear side of the second auxiliary tool 32 in the standing posture. In a state where the second auxiliary tool 32 does not hold both distal end portions, it is difficult for the second auxiliary tool 32 to stand by itself alone, and if the first auxiliary tool 30 is present on the rear side thereof, the standing posture of the second auxiliary tool 32 can be naturally maintained. However, when the space of the imaging table is not sufficient, the second auxiliary tool 32 is used as a single body.
In the case of constructing the front-rear stacked body 14B, since the first auxiliary tool 30 on the rear side has cushioning properties, the movement of slightly falling down the second auxiliary tool 32 to the rear side is allowed. When the second auxiliary tool 32 falls backward, the first auxiliary tool 30 is restored to its original shape by the elastic force of the first auxiliary tool 30. As a result, the second auxiliary tool 32 is set to the original standing posture again. In the standing posture of the second auxiliary tool 32, the inclination angle is θ 2.
The second auxiliary tool 32 has a holding structure 40 which is forward in its standing position. The holding structure has two receiving portions 56, 58 for receiving two distal side portions of the subject. The central axes of the two receiving portions 56 and 58 are inclined inward. As described above, in the state where the front-rear stacked body 14B is configured, the downward surface in the first auxiliary tool 30 and the downward surface in the second auxiliary tool 32 function as the bottom surface of the front-rear stacked body 14B as a whole.
Fig. 7 shows details of the second auxiliary tool. The second auxiliary tool has a holding structure 40 on its front (front) side. As described above, the holding structure 40 has the two receiving portions 56, 58. In the standing posture of the second auxiliary tool, the bottom portions 64 and 66 of the two receiving portions 56 and 58 receive and hold the heel, which is the lower portion of the distal side portion. Two inclined side walls 60, 62 having an inverted V shape are present between the two receiving portions 56, 58. Slits 68, 70 are formed in the side walls 60, 62. Two slits 71A, 71B are formed outside (on the left side in fig. 7) the housing portion 56. These can be selectively used. Slits 72A and 72B are formed outside (on the right side in fig. 7) of the housing 58. These can also be used selectively. The slits 68, 70, 71A, 71B, 72A, 72B are configured to allow insertion of a tape. In fig. 7, two bands are not shown.
The second auxiliary tool has a plurality of feet 78, 80, 82, 84 that function in its prone position. There are gaps 44, 46 between those. Specifically, a gap 44 exists between the leg 78 and the leg 82, and a gap 44 exists between the leg 80 and the leg 84. A gap 46 exists between the foot 82 and the foot 84. The space between the leg 78 and the leg 80 is also open.
In a state where the two distal portions are accommodated in the two accommodation portions 56, 58, the two heels are held by the bottom portions 64, 66, and inner side surfaces of the two distal portions abut against the two side walls 60, 62. In this state, the two distal side portions are fixed by the two bands. When the two distal side portions are large in size, the first tape is inserted into the slit 71A located on the outer side and the slit 68 located on the inner side, which are located at the higher position. Thereby, the distal end portion on the left side is fixed. Similarly, the outer slit 72A and the inner slit 70 located at the upper positions are used, and the second tape is inserted therein. Thereby, the distal end portion on the right side is fixed. On the other hand, when the two distal side portions are small in size, the first strap is inserted into the lower outer slit 71B and the inner slit 68. Thereby, the distal end portion on the left side is fixed. Similarly, the outer slit 72B and the inner slit 70 located at the lower positions are used, and the second belt is inserted therein. Thereby, the distal end portion on the right side is fixed. It may be constituted in such a manner that the height of the belt is changed to three or more levels.
Fig. 8 shows two planar fasteners 86, 88 provided on a surface (imaginary surface) 42e of the second auxiliary tool 32. These are coupling members detachably coupled to the two surface fasteners shown in fig. 5.
Fig. 9 shows the upper and lower layered bodies 14A. The upper and lower stacked bodies 14A are disposed under the two legs 16A, 16B. Thereby, the knee bending posture of bending upward is formed and maintained. Fig. 10 shows a front-back laminated body 14B. The two distal side portions 16C, 16D are received in the two receiving portions 56, 58 in the holding structure. The central axes 90, 92 of the two distal side portions 16C, 16D are inclined inward. The angle of inclination is for example 20 degrees. With this configuration, the posture of bending the legs inward is formed and maintained in the subject.
(3) Arrangement of use modes of auxiliary tool kit
The manner of use of the auxiliary tool kit is collated in FIG. 11. As indicated by reference numeral 94, in the lumbar examination, the upper and lower layered bodies are used when the subject is tall. That is, the first auxiliary tool is placed on the second auxiliary tool. In this case, the first auxiliary tool has an upright posture and functions as it is, and the second auxiliary tool has a prone posture and functions as a hard base for lifting and reinforcing. As indicated by reference numeral 96, in the lumbar vertebra examination, the first auxiliary tool is used alone in a case where the subject is short. In this case, the first auxiliary tool is in an upright posture. No second auxiliary tool is used.
As indicated by reference numeral 98, in the case where there is a sufficient space (for installing the front and rear layered bodies) on the imaging table in the femur examination, the front and rear layered bodies are used. That is, the first auxiliary tool is provided on the rear side of the second auxiliary tool. The first auxiliary tool plays a role of increasing the depth. In this case, the second auxiliary tool has an upright posture, and the first auxiliary tool has a lateral posture. The front and rear laminates and the upper and lower laminates have the same shape and are arranged in different postures. As indicated by reference numeral 100, in the case where the space on the imaging table (for installing the front and rear layered bodies) is insufficient in the femur examination, the second auxiliary tool is used alone. In this case, the second auxiliary tool is held by the two distal ends of the subject in the stage of holding the two distal ends. Before that, the subject or the like holds the second auxiliary tool to maintain the posture thereof.
The auxiliary tool kit may be constituted by three or more auxiliary tools. In the above embodiment, the description is made of the support tool kit for measuring bone density, and the support tool kit can be used for radiography. Alternatively, an auxiliary tool kit for radiography may be configured. Kits of auxiliary tools may also be utilized in other X-ray examinations.
According to the auxiliary tool kit of the above embodiment, the amount of material and the number of components can be reduced by half compared to a plurality of dedicated auxiliary tools whose usage can be changed for multi-site X-ray examination. Therefore, the storage is performed in half of the storage space. Since the second auxiliary tool on the lower side of the upper and lower stacked bodies is made of a hard material, reliable lifting and reinforcement can be expected, and the upper and lower stacked bodies do not collapse more than necessary. In the front and rear stacked body, since the first auxiliary tool on the rear side has cushioning properties, the second auxiliary tool can be allowed to slightly fall down, and a feeling of security can be given to the subject when the two distal side portions are held and fixed. Since the second auxiliary tool has a degree of freedom in its posture, workability in attaching the two belts can be improved.
