Patent

CA 2688169

The present disclosure provides an irradiation treatment apparatus having a generally vertical patient support surface; a patient securing mechanism arranged to secure a patient in a fixed relation to the patient support surface; a rotation platform secured at one end of the patient support surface and arranged to rotate the patient support surface about a generally vertical axis and optionally translate the patient support surface at least partially about a plane generally orthogonal to the generally vertical axis; an imager exhibiting a first mode in which the imager occludes radiation from a fixed beam irradiation source and a second mode in which the imager enables irradiation from the fixed beam irradiation source; and a vertical translation mechanism in communication with the patient support surface and arranged to translate the patient support surface along the generally vertical axis from a loading position to an irradiation position.

L'invention concerne un appareil de traitement par irradiation comprenant : une surface de support de patient généralement verticale ; un mécanisme d'immobilisation de patient conçu pour immobiliser le patient par rapport à la surface de support ; une plate-forme de rotation fixée sur une extrémité de la surface de support et conçue pour faire pivoter la surface de support autour d'un axe généralement vertical et translater facultativement ladite surface au moins partiellement autour d'un plan généralement perpendiculaire à l'axe généralement vertical ; un imageur présentant un premier mode dans lequel ledit imageur occlut le rayonnement provenant d'une source d'irradiation à faisceau fixe et un deuxième mode dans lequel l'imageur permet l'irradiation provenant de la source d'irradiation à faisceau fixe ; et un mécanisme de translation verticale en communication avec la surface de support de patient, disposé de sorte à translater ladite surface le long de l'axe généralement vertical, d'une position de chargement à une position d'irradiation.
