MR/CT Titanium Flex Arm System

MR/CT Conditional Titanium Flex Arm System

• MR Conditional

• Positions devices in five axes of rotation and three axes of movement

• Board is tapered at patient end for patient comfort

• Cutout handle for easy removal

The MR Flex Arm was designed for use in MR to hold Applicators, Vaginal Cylinder, Tandems or other objects securely in place during GYN brachytherapy treatment.

Instructions for Use

The treatment applicator is placed into the patient and the tapered end of the base is slid under the patient. 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 and rail block are 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 ball stud that allows the applicator clamp 360° of rotation. A thumb screw will lock the clamp and another thumb screw locks the board rail block.
