Tangential Breast Cone, Theratronics Theratron, 100cm.

The Tangential Breast Cone for the Best Theratronics Theratron machines is a device designed to eliminate penumbra and beam divergence for the breast tangential portals.  The device consists of a support plate and lead block for shielding of the contralateral side.  An extension plate projects from the source head to the treatment distance.  The extension plate is set to be off-center of the radiation source by one-half the diameter of the radiation source.  This allows the entire radiation source to be utilized for treatment.  Lateral adjustable lead trimming bars are provided to block the sides of the tangential fields, to insure that no overlapping with the supraclavicular field occurs.  The end of the breast cone has an acrylic plate of 9.5mm thickness to provide equilibrium when treating the breast wall with Cobalt 60.  The acrylic plate is removable for treatments without bolus.
