[0002] As an important means of non-invasive diagnosis, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) places extremely high demands on patient position stability, especially during head scans, where micron-level displacements can lead to image artifacts. Currently, sponge pads or straps are commonly used for fixation in clinical practice, but these cannot adapt to different head shapes and lack dynamic adjustment capabilities. In recent years, studies have attempted mechanical clamping devices, but most have encountered problems such as complex structures, strong pressure, or metal components interfering with the magnetic field. With the popularization of high-field MRI, scanning times have been extended to over 30 minutes, and the contradiction between patient comfort and fixation reliability has become increasingly prominent.
