THE VAC FIX FIXATION SYSTEM
Does the fixation system used in your radiotherapy department meet with today's standards?
Is it reusable, precise, comfortable, non-toxic, fast and easy to use? If not, you will
appreciate Par Scientific's fixation system, the VAC FIX FIXATION SYSTEM.
The Vac Fix bag consists of an airtight bag filled with small polystyrene spheres (1.75-75 liter fill).
The Vac Fix bags are almost air equivalent and will only increase the build-up effect with a few percent.
Pefect Fixation in Less Than Five Minutes
Place the patient on the air-filled cushion in the treatment position, evacuate the cushion for a few seconds, mold the cushion to the desired shape giving the patient the best fixation and points of support, evacuate the cushion until it becomes rigid and you have a perfectly shaped cushion in just a matter of minutes.
To increase perfection the Vac Fix System gives you the possibility of designing your own cushions
convenient for your special needs and wishes.
Maximum Accuracy
Radiotherapy treatment is moving toward an increased use of multi-fractioned, multi-field and rotation treatment based on sophisticated computer technology. This demands a maximum fixation accuracy.
Tests have shown that with only a few weeks of practice, the same accuracy in day-to-day reproducibility
of positioning can be obtained using the Vac Fix System as with any other fixation system which has been used for years. A standard deviation of the center cross of 1.5 mm was achieved.

VAC FIX, VAC-LOKTM ALPHA CRADLE® “SUPPORTS”
Polyethylene Plank Foam
A support wedge to use with your positioning systems.
These supports are made to improve contours by adding shapes as needed for patient positioning.
The material is polyethylene plank foam is 1.7pcf. It is virtually indestructible, which is cost
effective to your department. You can use it over again and again, saving money and waste.
Because the material is porous, it is not to be used with direct patient contact.
