Total Body Irradiation (TBI) Stand for Photons or Electrons

The platform of the Total Body Stand is in the lowest position at 3" (7.6 cm) from the floor and is adjustable upward in 1" (2.5 cm) increments.  This will allow centering the patient to the central axis of the beam.  The platform is made of Gray PVC covered with non-slip vinyl material that is marked in 60° increments and has a mounting hole for the seat post.  An adjustable seat post is included to provide maximum adjustment, in 1/4" (0.64 cm) increments, of the seat height.  The seat height is determined and the seat is locked to the seat post.  The seat angle is set by rotating seat post and locking when position is selected.

The Total Body Stand frame is made of 2" (5 cm) steel tubing.  The frame consists of 2 “T” vertical posts and a top stabilizer bar.  Holes spaced 1" (2.5 cm) apart on the vertical posts allow easy adjustment of all attachments.  The top stabilizer bar and vertical “T” posts are removable for easy breakdown and storage. Two beam spoiler hanger assemblies attach to the top stabilization bar. The stand has 4 swivel locking casters which allow easy movement and positioning.

A polycarbonate block holder can be mounted on the front of the vertical posts to support lung blocks or other shields.  A stainless steel cassette holder can be mounted on the rear of the vertical posts. The back rest and hand grips can be used at any location on the vertical posts.

The polycarbonate block holder and the block tray for the block room have the exact same hole pattern.  Tungsten pins can be inserted into the block holder as alignment markers.
