Scale lines 2 are provided on the top surface and side surface of the main body 1. The scale lines 2 are distributed along the radial and axial directions of the surface center. Preferably, the scale lines 2 are etched on the top surface and side surface of the main body 1. The etching method makes the scale lines 2 not easily worn and has high precision. The precision of the scale lines 2 is preferably 1 mm. The scale lines 2 cooperate with the laser lamps 12 to locate the center point of the radiotherapy device 14. That is, the centers of the radiotherapy device 14 are located by two laser lamps 12. Aligning the scale lines 2 with the marking lines of the laser lamps 12 can quickly place the main body 1 at the center point of the radiotherapy device 14. The shape of the main body 1 is preferably a cuboid structure. The cuboid structure is convenient for placing on the treatment couch 11 and is also convenient for accurately setting the scale lines 2.
