摘要： According to the present invention, improved methods and apparatus are provided for providing cushioning and other ergonomic surfaces on devices requiring the patient or tissue to be compressed, such as radiography machines, fluoroscopy units, mammography units and the like. In particular a radiolucent pad element is provided for releasable attachment to at least one surface of a compression device to be used under x-ray, for example, during mammography. The pad element of the present invention can be disposable or constructed to be reusable and in some cases may be applied directly to the patient's breast. Furthermore, a cushioned paddle is provided wherein the compression paddle and the cushion can be separately or integrally formed.

摘要： Apparatus for delivering brachytherapy to a target tissue region includes an elongate body including a proximal end, a distal end sized for introduction into a tissue tract and carrying a plurality of elongate members including pathways for receiving a source of radiation. The elongate members are movable between collapsed and expanded configurations. During use, a tract is created through tissue, and the elongate body carrying the elongate members is advanced through the tract into a target location with the elongate members in the collapsed configuration. The elongate members are directed to the expanded configuration at the target location, and radiation is delivered to treat tissue at the target location, e.g., by introducing one or more radiation sources along the pathways.

摘要： Balloon loaded dissection devices and methods for using such devices are disclosed. One such device includes an elongate shaft having sufficient rigidity to push through body tissue free of naturally occurring openings in the body tissue alongside an elongate structure, a handle operably mounted on an end of the elongate shaft, an elongate balloon capable of assuming deflated and inflated states on the elongate shaft, and a fluid passageway in communication with the inflatable interior space in the elongate balloon for communicating an inflation fluid to the elongate balloon. The handle includes a receptacle configured to releasably receive an instrument. The receptacle defines an elongated slot laterally spaced from the elongated shaft. The elongate balloon includes an axial length substantially greater than a transverse diameter of the elongate balloon when the elongate balloon is in the inflated state. The balloon defines an inflatable interior space into which a fluid is introduced to inflate the balloon.

摘要： A compression device for a mammography unit includes a compression plate positionable in an x-ray field of the mammography unit, and a radiolucent foam pad removably attached to the compression plate that includes an impermeable exposed surface for contacting tissue disposed on the pad within the x-ray field. The pad includes an adhesive layer on the first surface, or a hook and eye fastener for removably attaching the pad to the compression plate. The pad is attached to the compression plate in the x-ray field of the mammography unit, a breast is compressed using the compression plate, a mammogram of the compressed breast is obtained, the pad producing no significant visual artifact on the mammogram, and thereafter the pad is removed.

摘要： A compression device includes a frame mountable to a mammography unit that includes a window disposed within an x-ray field of the mammography unit when the frame is mounted to the mammography unit, and a radiolucent compressible member connectable to the frame across the window for providing a compression surface within the x-ray field. For example, the compressible member may include a rigid backing member and a radiolucent pad, e.g., a gel pad, on the backing member. The backing member and frame may include tongue and groove or other connectors for connecting the compressible member to the frame. Optionally, one or more thin, radiolucent films may be removable from the compressible member, e.g., after obtaining x-rays from successive individual patients.
