Breast immobilisation arrangement |
| abstract |
Breast immobilisation apparatus for use in breast imaging to allow medical intervention. Suitable for use with MRI scanning, X-rays or ultrasound. The apparatus comprises a body support platform for supporting the body of a patient in a prone position, the body support platform having a hole through which the breast of a patient is allowed to pendulantly project in use; and a breast cup arranged below the hole for receiving a breast of the patient and comprising means for uniformly compressing the breast to immobilise it without substantially deforming the breast, and an aperture arrangement to allow access to a substantial portion of the surface of the breast for medical intervention. The cup includes a flange 5 which engages the cup with the patient support platform, a rigid structure 1 and a resilient pneumatic urging arrangement 3. |
