This patented head and neck device is revolutionary in that it seamlessly integrates shoulder depression. Prior to the development of the AccuFix Cantilever Board, therapists tried to depress the patient’s shoulders with ropes or straps or by using large costly pieces of thermoplastic. These older techniques were unreliable by today’s standards and often required two or more technicians.
The device’s unique cantilever design allows for 360-degree treatment with minimal attenuation. The fully adjustable carbon fiber Shoulder Depression System is designed to increase setup repeatability and reduce patient motion without requiring large sheets of thermoplastic over the shoulders.
Since its inception, the Cantilever Board has become one of our most popular products. The AccuFix Cantilever Board is used daily, in hundreds of cancer centers all over the world including four of the Top Ten US News' 2006 "Best Hospitals for Cancer."
Adapters are available to mount the Cantilever Board to treatment tables and position the board in a fixed and repeatable location to prevent tipping that can occur with other headboards.
