Prostate and Pelvic Immobilization

Pelvic form for radiation

Pelvic Form

PF1 – Supine Form – 4/case
The Pelvic Form is for treatment in the supine position. The form comes unassembled, allowing full customization to each patient’s width. A triangular insert helps guide proper leg separation. The form allows deep impressions of the patient’s anatomy for exact repositioning and comfortable and secure immobilization. Targeting marks can be indexed directly onto the form for quick and easy repositioning on your table top.

Pelvic Form Modified – INSTRUCTIONS

PFM – Supine Form – 3/case
The Pelvic Form Modified was designed for superior immobilization from the patient’s rib cage to below the feet. This form is lightweight yet sturdy enough to support the patient’s weight as they climb into and out of the form, offering maximum strength and durability. The Pelvic Form Modified is the safest and most durable form for prostate patients. The PFM controls torso rotation as well as flexion and movement of the patient’s feet. Comfortable knee inserts raise the knees while allowing separation as necessary. This easy-to-use, easy-to-make form allows for pinpoint accuracy, with smaller margins, while greatly increasing the comfort and security of your prostate patient.

Belly Board Extended – for reducing bowel

BBE – Prone Form – 4/case
The Belly Board Extended is an advanced version of the Belly Board. It is 6” longer, immobilizing from the rib cage down to the mid-thigh region and comes with more foam for maximum stability. This durable form allows the patient to easily get into and out of the form. High walls of foam hold your patient securely for maximum immobilization and repositioning. Our Belly Board forms are the only forms on the market designed to drop the bowel away from the treatment field, allowing more precise access to the target field.

In our clinic, Alpha Cradle® forms are used for patients. The position of these patients is often complicated by efforts to avoid irradiating unnecessary volumes of normal tissue. The forms from Smithers Medical Products are built to immobilize the patient from the waist to below the feet.
