MR/CT Titanium Flex Arm for Slessinger Board

MR/CT Conditional Titanium Flex Arm for Slessinger Board

• MR Conditional
• Positions devices in five axes of rotation and three axes of movement
• Cutout handle for easy placement

The MR/CT Conditional Titanium Flex Arm was designed for use in MR or CT to hold a HDR Nucletron, HDR Varian, HDR Eckert & Ziegler, FSD LDR Applicators, Vaginal Cylinder, Tandems or other objects securely in place during GYN brachytherapy treatment on the Slessinger Board.

The MR/CT Conditional Titanium Flex Board (Blue) is mounted to the Slessinger Board with a knob and washers and can be moved in or out approximately 5". The treatment applicator is placed into the patient while laying on the Slessinger Board. The Flex Arm rail block is slid onto the board rail and the applicator clamp is adjusted to fit onto the treatment applicator and locked. The Flex Arm rail block is then locked into place.

The vertical post allows the Flex Arm to rotate 360° and has vertical markings every half centimeter from 3cm to 15cm. The wing knob on the vertical post clamp locks the elevation, rotational and in/out position of the Flex Arm. Slightly tightening the wing knob will lock the vertical post clamp in rotation and elevation. Further tightening will lock the in/out travel of the Flex Arm. The wing knob at the end of the Flex Arm locks the swivel of the applicator clamp. Loosen the Flex Arm wing knob to adjust the swivel of the applicator clamp into position and attach to the treatment applicator. When attached to the treatment applicator, tighten the Flex Arm wing knob at the end of the Flex Arm. Then tighten the post wing knob to lock in/out position of the Flex Arm.

The applicator clamp end of the Flex Arm has a cutout swivel that houses a ball stud and allows the applicator clamp 360° of rotation. A thumb screw will lock the clamp and another thumb screw locks the board rail block.
