Abstract
Description
図2は、患者Mの頭皮表面20の2箇所に着色されたマーキング32,34に対して位置決め可能に構成されたコイルホルダ10aを示す図である。図示するように、コイルホルダ10aの長軸(2つのコイルの中心を結ぶ線に平行な方向)側の両端縁部には、略半円状の先端部を有する位置決め用突起12,14(位置決め部の一部)が該コイルホルダ10aの上面及び下面に対してほぼ平行に取り付けられている。突起12,14には、マーキング用透孔120,140(位置決め部の一部)が形成されており、これら透孔120,140の中心間距離がマーキング32,34の中心間距離と等しくしてある。なお、上述のように、医療機関において患者の初期診療時にコイルホルダ10aと同一のコイルホルダを用いて患者に対する最適コイル位置が決定され、その最適コイル位置にコイルを設置したときのマーキング透孔に対応する位置にマーキング32,34が形成される。
以下、その具体例を説明する。
図4は具体例1を示す。この具体例1において、コイルホルダ10cの長軸側の一端縁部には、突起14が該コイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ平行に取り付けられている。突起14の先端部には、カメラ143がその光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ鉛直に向けてコイルホルダ10cに固定されている。そして、カメラ143は通信ケーブル149を介してディスプレイ52に接続されており、カメラ143から出力された映像信号に基づいて、カメラ143で撮影された画像がディスプレイ52に表示されるように構成されている。このような構成によれば、カメラ143の視準マーク300にマーキング34(32)が一致するように患者自身または介助者がディスプレイ52で確認しながら位置合わせすることで、コイルホルダ10cのコイル2を最適コイル位置に位置決めできる。なお、具体例1では、視準マーク300は、水平線と垂直線からなる十字線で表されており、水平線と垂直線の交点がカメラ143の光軸に一致させてある。また、視準マーク300は十字線に限るものでなく、例えば、円形又は四角形の模様であってもよく、その場合、円形又は四角形の中心をカメラの光軸に一致させる。これらの点は、以下に説明する他の形態又は他の具体例でも同様である。
図5は具体例2を示す。この具体例2では、コイルホルダ10cの長軸側の両端縁部に2台のカメラ123,143が固定されている。具体的に説明すると、コイルホルダ10cの長軸側の両端縁部には、突起12,14が該コイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ平行に取り付けられている。突起14には、カメラ123がその光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対して所定角度傾斜させて固定されている。同様に、突起14には、カメラ143がその光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対して所定角度傾斜させて固定されている。
図7、図8は具体例3を示す。図7(a)に示すように、コイルホルダ10cは、コイルホルダ10cの下面と患者Mの頭部の頂部22に接触させた状態で両者の接点100を支点として当該コイルホルダ10cの向き調整することが好ましい。そのために、本具体例では、図示するように、コイルホルダ10cの長軸側の両端縁部に、突起12,14が該コイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ平行に取り付けられている。突起12、14には、カメラ123、143がそれらの光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ鉛直に向けてコイルホルダ10cに固定されている。
図9は具体例4を示す。具体例4において、コイルホルダ10cの長軸側の一端縁部には、突起14が該コイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ平行に取り付けられている。突起14の基端側には、カメラ143がその光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対してほぼ鉛直に向けてコイルホルダ10cに固定されている。さらに、突起14の末端側には、光学装置の一例であるレーザポインタ150がその光軸をコイルホルダ10cの上面及び下面に対して所定角度傾斜させてコイルホルダ10cに固定されている。
具体例4をさらに具体化した磁気刺激システム1cを図11に示す。この磁気刺激システム1cは、患者Mの頭部表面20(例えば、図2参照。)の外形に似せた内面形状を有するヘルメット64を有する。ヘルメット64は、非磁性の合成樹脂材料で形成することが好ましい。ヘルメット64には、刺激用コイル(図示せず)を有するコイルホルダ10cが組み付けられている。ヘルメット64に対するコイルホルダ10cの位置は、患者Mがヘルメット64を装着した状態でコイルホルダ10cが当該患者に対する最適コイル位置またはその近傍位置を取るように、決められている。
次に、患者の身体の一部をマーキングとして利用する実施の形態について図14を参照して説明する。以下の説明では、患者の目尻を位置決め用のマーキングとして利用し、そのマーキングに対してコイルホルダを位置決めする例を述べる。図において、コイルホルダ10dの本体部分(位置決め部を除く主要部分)は実施の形態1に示したものと同じであり、同一構成部分には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
患者の頭部表面に固定された磁石又は頭部皮下に埋め込まれた磁石を利用してコイルホルダを位置決めする実施の形態について図15を参照して説明する。図において、コイルホルダ10eの主要部の構成は実施の形態1、実施の形態2に示したものと同じであり、同一構成部分には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。
図18は、移動装置付き磁気刺激システム1hを示し、そこには、刺激用コイル(図示せず)を有するコイルホルダ10hを、患者Mの頭部表面20に似せた所定球面に沿って移動させる機構を含む移動装置60(移動機構)が組み込まれている。また、コイルホルダ10hは、患者Mの頭部表面20に対して所望の姿勢で保持できる支持部材62に支持されている。移動装置60は、患者Mの頭部の一部を覆うように該患者Mの頭部の上方に配置される。図において、符号70は患者Mを仰向けに寝かせるための治療用の椅子であり、この椅子70には、移動装置60を操作するための操作盤80(制御手段)がケーブル85を介して移動装置60と電気的に接続されている。以上の構成に加えて、図示していないが、コイルホルダ10hの下面には、患者Mの頭部表面20に施されたマーキングを自動的に検出するための画像センサ(認識手段)が設けてある。
