CT Patient Positioning Arm Holder for Toshiba Aquillion Systems — PX79-02220

In any busy radiology department or imaging center, achieving optimal patient positioning is fundamental to acquiring clear, artifact-free CT images. The Toshiba PX79-02220 is a specialized 'One Arm Up Holder' designed as a crucial accessory for Aquillion series CT scanners.

This holder is engineered to securely and comfortably support a patient's arm in a raised position. This technique is essential for many thoracic, abdominal, and some head and neck imaging protocols. By moving the arm out of the scan's field of view, the holder helps to significantly reduce beam hardening artifacts and improve overall diagnostic image quality.
