Période

THIS MOULD WAS USED IN FEBRUARY 2000.

Canada

THIS MOULD WAS MADE IN OTTAWA, ON AT THE CANCER CLINIC, GENERAL CAMPUS OF OTTAWA HOSPITAL. IT WAS MADE FOR THE DONOR, FRANCINE ANDERSON, WHO UNDERWENT RADIATION THERAPY FOR BREAST CANCER AT THAT FACILITY.

Fonction

TO CORRECTLY POSITION AND IMMOBILIZE A PATIENT UNDERGOING RADIATION THERAPY.

Technique

EXAMPLE OF MOULD CUSTOM MADE FOR PATIENTS UNDERGOING RADIATION THERAPY FOR CANCER. THE FINISHED FORM WAS MADE FROM A PLASTER OF PARIS MOULD: PERFORATIONS WERE CUT INTO THE ACRYLIC FORM IN THE AREA REQUIRING RADIATION; THE HOLE BY THE LEFTSHOULDER PERMITTED AN INTRAVENOUS SHUNT TO BE INSERTED. MARKINGS ON THE SHIELD INDICATE TARGET SITES FOR RADIATION BEAM. SIDE TABS IN MOULD ALLOW PATIENT TO BE FASTENED TO THE TREATMENT TABLE OF THE THERAPY UNIT: PRECISE POSITIONING AND SUSTAINED STILLNESS ARE ESSENTIAL. (REF. 1)
