The HeadSTEP is equipped with a unique iFRAME, making it one of the most precise head immobilization systems on the market. Due to the easy operability and highest manufacturing quality, the most accurate repositioning of the head-neck and shoulder area can be guaranteed. The HeadSTEP system is designed to work with the disposable iFRAME and iCAST thermoplastic masks. The iFRAME allows easy molding and symmetrical pull-down by one therapist. The joint of the wing-shaped iFRAME is one of the great advantages of the system, combining total coverage of the anterior, lateral and superior head regions when the iFRAME locks into the shaped channels, thereby minimizing the rotation of the head in all three axes. The low-temperature iCAST thermoplastic is available in a variety of perforation patterns. Its rigidity, resistance to shrinkage and easy molding quality is outstanding. The HeadSTEP system uses a 23-step elevation mechanism, which permits immobilization at variable head angles without the use of wedges. It can be used on all commercially available couches and is also indexable for enhanced reproducibility.
