Description

Beschreibungdescription
Haltevorrichtung für den Kopf eines PatientenHolding device for the head of a patient
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Haltevorrichtung für den Kopf eines Patienten mit einer an einem Patientenlagerungstisch angebrachten, den Kopf aufnehmenden Kopfschale.The invention relates to a holding device for the head of a patient with a mounted on a patient support table, the head receiving head shell.
In dem DE 86 19 834 Ul ist eine Vorrichtung zur Halterung eines Patienten beschrieben, bei dem eine den Oberkörper des Patienten aufnehmende Schale mittels Einstecklaschen in Schlitze einschiebbar ist, die an der Oberfläche des Patien¬ tenlagerungstisches vorgesehen sind. Weiterhin ist die Halte¬ rung mit Versteifungsabschnitten versehen. Sowohl die Ein- stecklaschen als auch die Versteifungsabschnitte erzeugen je¬ doch im Halsbereich eines Patienten sehr deutliche Schatten im Röntgenbild, die beispielsweise von Neurologen als sehr störend empfunden werden.In DE 86 19 834 Ul a device for supporting a patient is described in which a receiving the upper body of the patient's shell is inserted by means of insertion tabs in slots, which are provided on the surface of Patien ¬ tenlagerungstisches. Furthermore, the holding ¬ tion is provided with stiffening sections. Both the input plug tabs and the stiffening sections each generate ¬ but in the neck area of a patient very distinct shadow on the radiograph, which are felt for example by neurologists to be very disturbing.
Die Erfindung geht von der Aufgabe aus, eine Halterung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die einen stabilen Aufbau aufweist und keine Röntgenschatten im interessierenden Be¬ reich des Röntgenbilds wirft.The invention is based on the object to provide a holder of the aforementioned type, which has a stable structure and no X-ray shadow in the area of interest of the X-ray image throws.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass eineThe object is achieved in that a
Halterung vorgesehen ist, die seitlich am Patientenlagerungs¬ tisch befestigt ist und die Kopfschale in ihrem Seitenbereich hält. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die Halterung sich nicht im den Patienten durchdringenden Strahlengang befindet.Holder is provided, which is laterally attached to the table Tischlagerungs¬ and holds the head shell in its side region. This ensures that the holder is not in the patient's penetrating beam path.
Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn die Halterung der Form des Patientenlagerungstisches angepasst ist, wobei die Halterung S-förmig, beispielsweise wie ein lang gezogenes S gebogen sein kann. Eine sichere Befestigung ergibt sich, wenn der der Halterung zugehörende Befestigungsteil der Form der gebogenen Kopfscha¬ le angepasst und nach oben gerichtet ist.It has proved to be advantageous if the holder is adapted to the shape of the patient support table, wherein the holder S-shaped, for example, as a long drawn S can be bent. A secure attachment is obtained, if the associated bracket of the mounting part of the shape of the curved head saddle ¬ le adjusted and is directed upwards.
In vorteilhafter Weise kann die Halterung aus einem Kohlenfa- serwerkstoff und die Kopfschale aus Polyäthylen bestehen.Advantageously, the holder may consist of a carbon fiber material and the head shell of polyethylene.
Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend anhand von in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert. Es zei- gen:The invention is explained in more detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawing. Show it:
Figur 1 eine Aufsicht auf einen Patientenlagerungstisch mit erfindungsgemäßer Halterung,1 shows a plan view of a patient support table with inventive holder,
Figur 2 eine Seitenansicht eines Patientenlagerungstisch mit erfindungsgemäßer Halterung undFigure 2 is a side view of a patient support table with inventive holder and
Figur 3 eine Aufsicht auf die erfindungsgemäße Halterung.Figure 3 is a plan view of the holder according to the invention.
In der Figur 1 ist ein Patientenlagerungstisch 1 dargestellt, der sich zu seinem kopfseitigen Ende 2 verjüngt. An dem Pati¬ entenlagerungstisch 1 ist eine Halterung 3 seitlich ange¬ bracht, die in Aufsicht im Wesentlichen S-förmig gebogen ist. Sie führt dabei an der Außenwand des Patientenlagerungsti- sches 1 vorbei und in Verlängerung der Außenwand des kopfsei¬ tigen Endes 2 weiter. An ihrem Ende ist die Halterung 3, wie aus Figur 2 ersichtlich, zu einem Befestigungsteil 4 nach oben gebogen, wobei an diesem Befestigungsteil 4 eine Kopf¬ schale 5 mit ihrem Seitenbereich angebracht ist. Dies zeigt auch die Figur 3, in der eine Sicht auf das kopfseitige Ende 2 des Patientenlagerungstisches 1 gezeigt ist.FIG. 1 shows a patient support table 1, which tapers to its head-side end 2. A holder 3 is attached laterally to the patient support table 1, which holder is bent substantially S-shaped in plan view. It leads on to the outer wall of Patientenlagerungsti- MOORISH one over and an extension of the outer wall of the kopfsei ¬ term end. 2 At its end, the holder 3, as shown in Figure 2, bent to a fastening part 4 upwards, wherein on this fastening part 4, a head ¬ shell 5 is attached with its side region. This is also the figure 3, in which a view of the head end 2 of the patient support table 1 is shown.
Die Halterung 3 kann dabei mittels Schrauben oder anderer Be¬ festigungsmittel an dem Patientenlagerungstisch 1 befestigt sein. Sie kann aber auch in eine seitlich am Patientenlage¬ rungstisch 1 angebrachte, nicht dargestellte Schiene einge¬ schoben und durch Rastmittel arretiert sein. Die Kopfschale 5 kann an dem der Form der Kopfschale 5 angepassten Befesti¬ gungsteil 4 geklebt sein.The holder 3 can be fastened to the patient table 1 by means of screws or other fastening means. However, it can be inserted into a laterally ¬ also attached to the patient positioning table 1, not shown, rail and to be locked by locking means. The head shell 5 can be glued to the shape of the head shell 5 adapted Befesti¬ supply part 4.
Die Kopfschale 5 kann beispielsweise aus Polyäthylen beste- hen, das durch Erhitzung in die Form gebracht worden ist. Da¬ bei kann der Befestigungsteil 4 gleich mit in die Kopfschale 5 eingearbeitet werden. Es kann jedoch aber auch an der Kopf¬ schale 5 ein Schlitz vorgesehen sein, in den der Befesti¬ gungsteil 4 der Halterung 3 eingreift.The head shell 5 can, for example, consist of polyethylene, which has been brought into the mold by heating. Da¬ in the fastening part 4 can be incorporated with the same in the head shell 5. However, it can also be provided on the Kopf¬ shell 5, a slot into which the Befesti¬ supply part 4 of the holder 3 engages.
Die Halterung 3 kann beispielsweise aus einem Kohlenfaser- werkstoff bestehen, der nur eine geringe Schattenwirkung zur Folge hat und ausreichend stabil ist.The holder 3 may for example consist of a carbon fiber material, which has only a slight shadow effect and is sufficiently stable.
Durch die seitliche Anbringung der Halterung 3 sowohl am Pa¬ tientenlagerungstisch 1 als auch an der Kopfschale 5 werden Schatten im Röntgenbild vermieden. Da weiterhin die Kopfscha¬ le 5 aus wenigen Teilen besteht, ist sie leicht herstellbar. By the lateral attachment of the holder 3 both on Pa¬ tientenlagerungstisch 1 and on the head shell 5 shadows in the X-ray image are avoided. Furthermore, since the Kopfscha¬ le 5 consists of few parts, it is easy to produce.
