Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a target organ positioning device for tumor radiotherapy. Background Technology

[0002] In tumor radiotherapy, precise target organ localization is crucial for ensuring treatment effectiveness and minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Currently, commonly used clinical methods for target organ localization include imaging techniques such as CT and MRI. However, these traditional methods have several limitations. Firstly, patients need to maintain a specific posture during localization; prolonged stillness can easily lead to patient fatigue, causing slight changes in posture, which may result in localization errors and affect the accuracy of subsequent radiotherapy.

[0003] For tumors in areas such as the heel and fingers, traditional localization methods have many shortcomings due to their unique anatomical structure and mobility. Current common localization methods, such as simple surface markings, are prone to localization deviations due to slight patient movement, thus affecting the accuracy of radiotherapy and potentially preventing the tumor from receiving an adequate dose of radiation while causing unnecessary damage to surrounding healthy tissues. Existing complex localization devices are often designed for larger body parts and are difficult to adapt to small and flexible areas like the heel and fingers, and are also costly and complex to operate. Therefore, developing a precise, convenient, and cost-effective target organ localization device specifically for tumor radiotherapy in the heel and fingers has significant clinical implications.

[0044] Working principle: In use, select the appropriate fixation component 1 according to the location of the patient's tumor, and then fix the fixation component 1 at the tumor location. Next, connect the fixation component 1, along with the adjusting rod 2, to the mounting base 3, and then lock the mounting base 3 onto the treatment table. The position of the mounting base 3 is then fixed by the clamping screw 4 and the pressure plate 5, ensuring a stable connection between the mounting base 3 and the treatment table. Then, adjust the position and angle of the fixation component 1 according to the treatment needs. Finally, tighten the clamping screw 4 and the set screw 114 to fix the extension length of the adjusting rod 2 and the angle of the fixation component 1. Finally, the treatment instrument can be used to treat the patient.
