Laser Modules and Assemblies for Patient Positioning

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document outlines the specifications and applications of laser modules and assemblies developed by Z-LASER for patient positioning in medical imaging and therapy systems. These systems are designed for integration into various medical devices such as mobile X-ray systems, CT/MRI, and proton therapy systems.

Specifications:

Laser Light Visor: Features a ring with mini laser modules and a snap-closing metal band. The ring is flat with integrated lasers and asymmetric line optics, with a thickness of 0.591 inches (15 mm). It operates on a 5 VDC battery with an auto-off feature and includes line shifter technology for position correction.
Image Amplifier Laser: Utilizes cross projection by two line lasers for patient positioning. It is battery-operated with programmable auto-off and allows for horizontal and inclination line adjustment.
X-Ray Source Laser: Aligns with a lead cross on the image amplifier to assist surgeons by ensuring the laser cross matches the x-ray image position.
Iso-Center Laser: A line projector for precise patient height positioning in the C-arm's iso-center, featuring a hand-focusable point laser with a precision bracket.
Laser Modules for CT/MRI and Radiotherapy: Includes a laser scale projector for measuring the distance between the patient's skin and the radiation source, reducing power consumption and heat.

Applications:

Patient Positioning: The laser systems are used for accurate patient positioning in diagnostic imaging and tumor therapy, ensuring precision in mobile X-ray systems, CT/MRI, and proton therapy systems.
Proton Therapy: Laser modules are integrated into the gantry for 3-dimensional patient positioning, withstanding temperatures up to 60°C (140°F).
Radiotherapy: The laser scale projector aids in the focus adjustment of a multi-leaf collimator (MLC) system.

Key Features:

Distance-independent center alignment of the laser cross in the C-arm axis.
Customizable connectors and battery operation for flexibility in integration.
High accuracy and precision in patient positioning applications.
