Carbon fiber medical head rests are imaging-compatible, high-strength medical devices designed to securely position the head; they are primarily used in surgical, radiation therapy, and imaging examination settings.
High X-ray Transmittance
Carbon fiber composites offer significantly higher X-ray transmittance than stainless steel, aluminum alloys, and traditional plastic head rests, ensuring they do not obstruct the imaging field of view.
High Strength and Low Deformation
When loaded with a 10 kg weight, a standard CT headrest deforms by less than 5 mm, maintaining a stable shape even during prolonged head support.
Lightweight and Ergonomic Design
The overall weight is significantly lower than that of metal headrests, allowing medical staff to quickly install, reposition, and adjust the headrest during surgery.
Intraoperative Positioning
Designed for use with a radiolucent carbon fiber surgical head frame, this device is intended for neurosurgery and spine surgery at the craniocervical junction, ensuring no interference with intraoperative fluoroscopy or DSA imaging throughout the procedure.
Imaging-Guided Localization
Compatible with X-ray, CT, PET, and MR imaging systems, this device ensures no metal artifacts in head imaging, resulting in clearer visualization of lesions.
Radiation Therapy Positioning
Serves as a positioning support component for radiation therapy, ensuring repeatability of head positioning during each treatment session and minimizing irradiation errors.
Support for Routine Examinations
Select models feature a polymer gel padding layer that conforms to the head’s natural contours, evenly distributing localized pressure and enhancing comfort during prolonged examinations.
