Pelvic Prone Board

The MacroMedics® Pelvic Prone Board™ is a new design prone positioning device for the patients undergoing treatment in the pelvic region. This high-end Pelvic Prone Board has been manufactured through 3-D molding- and production techniques resulting in a patient friendly, comfortable and ergonomic design. The region of interest (R.O.I.) consists of a specifically designed low attenuation carbon fiber sandwich construction with optimized dosimetric properties to allow 'arc' techniques. For optimal comfort, patient support and position reproducibility MacroMedics offers an optional indexed Pron Pillo that will guarantee reproducible patient positioning.

The Pelvic Prone Board is radio translucent, light weight, rigid and indexable.
With the Pelvic Prone Board, it is possible to obtain a significant reduction of the irradiated small bowel volume.
