When undergoing radiotherapy in the head and neck region, patient positioning is of the utmost importance. These sensitive regions require the most accurate positioning, while the patient should also be as comfortable as possible. MacroMedics® offers a range of patient positioning products for the head and neck region.
At MacroMedics® we offer three different systems: DSPS-Prominent® MR Safe, SSPS and DSPS. The Double Shell Positioning System (DSPS) consists of two masks made of special thermoplastic materials. These materials ensure that the masks do not shrink, resulting increased comfort for the patient. The DSPS-Prominent® MR Safe is the latest development in the DSPS product line. It features a cantilevered frame and extension to the full head, neck and shoulder area. The DSPS-Prominent® MR Safe therefore offers personal comfort and high treatment accuracy. In addition to these two options, we also offer the SSPS solution (the Single Shell Positioning System). The SSPS solution provides an easy way to avoid mask overstretching through combining a rigid mask with a cradle. You can find more detailed information about each system on their individual product pages.
