Carbon Fiber Head & Neck Supports | Lightweight Multi-Angle Elevation System
Carbon Fiber Head & Neck Supports are a lightweight, radiotransparent elevation system designed for precise head and neck positioning in radiotherapy workflows. Available as a set of six (A through F) with progressive height configurations, they provide customized cranial elevation for diverse treatment geometries. Made of durable carbon fiber with negligible radiation attenuation, they fit directly into baseplates and are compatible with a variety of tabletop and couch configurations.
Key Features:
- Set of six supports (A through F) offering multiple height and angle configurations
- Carbon fiber construction provides exceptional durability and minimal radiation attenuation
- Radiotransparent material reduces imaging artifacts and maintains treatment plan accuracy
- Lightweight design reduces burden on patient comfort during extended positioning
- Fits directly into baseplate systems without additional adaptors or hardware
- Compatible with a variety of tabletop and couch types
- Modular design allows rapid support selection for individual patient anatomy
- Indexable positioning ensures reproducible head and neck alignment across fractions
