Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, specifically a positioning mammography membrane. Background Technology
[0002] A mammography membrane is a specially designed medical device, typically made of thermoplastic materials, possessing excellent flexibility and malleability. It can be individually shaped to conform to the patient's breast shape, ensuring uniform compression and fixation of breast tissue during mammography. Traditional breast fixation methods in mammography suffer from uneven compression, poor patient comfort, and unstable imaging results. While existing mammography membranes provide some fixation and compression, improvements are still needed in adapting to different breast shapes, reducing pressure pain, and improving image quality.
[0003] During the treatment of serpentine breast cancer, the breast tissue needs to be compressed to reduce tissue thickness and improve image clarity. The body membrane can better fix the breast and reduce image blurring caused by patient movement or tissue displacement. Currently, the main technical solution used in medical treatment is to fix and clamp the patient's breast with two plates. The body membrane structure is very simple, consisting of two simple plates. Although it can clamp, fix and flatten the patient's breast during the compression process, there are still some problems and defects. For example, when compressing and flattening, because both ends are flat, there will be deformation on both sides of the clamping, and there is still deformation and shaking even when clamping.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a localized mammography membrane to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a positioning mammography membrane to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A positioning mammography membrane includes clamping pieces for vertical compression and side clamping pieces for lateral compression. The side clamping pieces are disposed on both sides of the bottom of the clamping pieces, and the side clamping pieces are specifically thin sheet structures with an arc length of 5 cm.
[0008] Preferably, each of the four top corners of the clamping piece is provided with a strip-shaped sliding groove, which is specifically a strip-shaped hole structure with open top and bottom.
[0009] Preferably, both sides of the top of the side clamping piece are integrally and fixedly connected with limiting slider structures, and the limiting slider structures are movably clamped in the inner cavity of the strip-shaped sliding groove.
[0010] Preferably, a small spring is installed in the inner cavity of the strip-shaped sliding groove, and both ends of the small spring are fixedly connected with the inner wall of the strip-shaped sliding groove and the side of the limiting slider structure respectively.
[0011] Preferably, the limiting slider structure is specifically a combination of a middle cylindrical structure and rectangular block structures at the upper and lower ends.
[0012] Preferably, the inner cavity of the strip-shaped sliding groove is in a middle-character shape structure, and the shape and size of the inner cavity are the same as those of the limiting slider structure.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] For this positioning type breast imaging body film, through the design and use of special clamping pieces and side clamping pieces, when performing breast imaging, the fixation and shaping ability of the entire breast position can be greatly improved, that is, the work efficiency during imaging examination and the clarity of image acquisition are improved indirectly.

[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Refer to Figure 1-3 as shown, the present utility model provides a technical solution for a positioning type breast imaging body film:
[0021] Embodiment:
[0022] The mammography membrane mainly includes a clamping sheet 1, and side clamping sheets 2 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the clamping sheet 1. The side clamping sheets 2 are thin sheet structures with an arc length of 5cm.
[0023] Among them, strip-shaped sliding grooves 3 are provided at the four corners of the top of the clamping piece 1.
[0024] Among them, the limit slider structure 4 is integrally fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the side clamping piece 2.
[0025] A small spring 5 is installed inside the inner cavity of the strip sliding groove 3. The two ends of the small spring 5 abut against the inner wall of the strip sliding groove 3 and the side of the limiting slider structure 4, respectively.
[0026] Specifically, the limiting slider structure 4 is a combination of a cylindrical structure and rectangular block structures at both ends, and the inner space of the strip sliding groove 3 is a Chinese character-shaped structure.
[0027] In this embodiment, in actual use, the structure of this technical solution is used in pairs, that is, two sets of clamping plates 1 are used together. When performing mammography, the entire body membrane structure needs to be disinfected first, and then heated to a suitable temperature according to the implementation requirements before the detection work is carried out.
[0028] The patient faces the mammography machine with feet naturally apart. The imaging platform is at a 30Β°β60Β° angle to the horizontal plane. The technician places their fingers in the armpit behind the pectoralis major muscle and gently pushes the muscle forward to make its lateral edge more prominent. The breast is lifted, and the breast tissue and pectoralis major muscle are pulled forward and backward to ensure flatness. The patient raises the arm on the side being examined and rotates the shoulder forward so that the upper outer corner of the imaging platform is placed in the armpit. The breast is pulled upward and outward to separate it from the chest wall, avoiding tissue overlap. Finally, the compression technique is used, with the technician directly manipulating the clamping film 1 to continuously move closer to the patient's breast and gradually... The compression action gradually forms. When the breast is compressed, the clamping plate 1 contacts the top of the breast to apply pressure, while the side clamping plate 2 provides limiting support for the breast position and applies a downward force to compress it. After the compression is completed, the upper and lower ends are compressed by the clamping plate 1, while the side position is supported, limited, and compressed by the side clamping plate 2. This can achieve lateral stable positioning of the breast position, avoiding shaking during actual detection and imaging, and also reducing the need for greater pressure on the upper and lower sides, thus reducing patient discomfort.
[0029] In this technical solution, the design and use of special clamping pieces 2 and side clamping pieces 3 can greatly improve the fixation and shaping ability of the entire breast during breast imaging, which indirectly improves the work efficiency and image acquisition clarity during imaging examination.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
