An example is shown in which the whole can be compressed uniformly.

しかしながら、マンモグラフィでの撮影では、***圧迫による患者の痛みは不可避である。また、マンモグラフィでは***を圧迫変形させて撮影を行うために、自然***での撮影ができないため、例えばがんの診断を行う場合は、がんの位置を正確に特定することができないという欠点がある。   However, in mammography, patient pain due to breast compression is inevitable. In addition, since mammography is performed by compressing and deforming the breast, it is not possible to capture images in a natural posture. For example, when diagnosing cancer, the position of cancer cannot be accurately identified. is there.

また従来放射線画像撮影装置としてX線CT装置が利用されているが、X線CT装置では、その適性の低さから乳がんの検査を目的とした検査はあまり行われていなかった。昨今、X線CT装置の高解像度化に伴って、乳がん検査等を目的とした***撮影の可能性が高まっているが、寝台に仰向けに寝た通常の撮影方法では、呼吸動、心拍動の影響を大きく受けて、乳がん検査に必要な分解能を得られないという不具合があった。

On the other hand, 20 is a breast fixing tool that can be mounted on the bed top plate 13.

図2は、***固定具20の詳細な構成を説明する斜視図である。図2に示すように***固定具20は、例えば硬質スポンジで形成されたマット部材21を有し、被検者はマット部材21の上にうつ伏せ状態で寝るようにする。マット部材21は、被検者の顔(顎部)が載る第1の部分22と、胸部が載る第2の部分23と、腹部以下の下半身が載る第3の部分24からなる。第1の部分22は、第3の部分24よりも厚さが大きく、第2の部分23は、第3の部分24から第1の部分22に向かって厚さが漸増している。これにより、被検者は固定具20の上に自然な形でうつ伏せになることができる。  FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating a detailed configuration of the breast fixture 20. As shown in FIG. 2, the breast fixture 20 includes a mat member 21 formed of, for example, a hard sponge, and the subject sleeps on the mat member 21 in a lying state. The mat member 21 includes a first portion 22 on which the subject's face (jaw) is placed, a second portion 23 on which the chest is placed, and a third portion 24 on which the lower half of the abdomen is placed. The first portion 22 is thicker than the third portion 24, and the second portion 23 gradually increases in thickness from the third portion 24 toward the first portion 22. Thus, the subject can lie down on the fixture 20 in a natural manner.

また、第2の部分23の傾斜面には、被検者がうつ伏せ状態で寝たときに***を挿入可能な一対の椀状の窪み31を設けている。窪み31の開口周辺部にはゴム部材32が取付けられている。一方、第2の部分23の側面には、窪み31に通じる吸引用の穴33が設けられ、穴33にはチューブ34の一端が挿通可能になっている。  In addition, the inclined surface of the second portion 23 is provided with a pair of bowl-shaped depressions 31 into which a breast can be inserted when the subject is lying on his / her face down. A rubber member 32 is attached to the periphery of the opening of the recess 31. On the other hand, a suction hole 33 leading to the recess 31 is provided on the side surface of the second portion 23, and one end of the tube 34 can be inserted into the hole 33.

チューブ34の他端は吸引ポンプ(図示せず)につながり、窪み31に***が挿入された状態で、吸引ポンプで窪み内の空気を吸引することにより、***を窪み31の内部方向に引き付けることができる。ゴム部材32は、吸引ポンプによる吸引時に窪み31の開口部から空気が入るのを防ぎ、かつ***が固定具20に当接したときの痛みを軽減する役割がある。  The other end of the tube 34 is connected to a suction pump (not shown), and the breast is attracted toward the inside of the depression 31 by sucking the air in the depression with the suction pump while the breast is inserted into the depression 31. Can do. The rubber member 32 has a role of preventing air from entering through the opening of the recess 31 during suction by the suction pump and reducing pain when the breast comes into contact with the fixture 20.

さらに***固定具20の底面には、***固定具20を寝台天板13の上に固定するためのアタッチメント35が設けられ、***固定具20を寝台天板13に位置決めできるようにしている。アタッチメント35は、X線撮影に支障がない材料で形成され、***固定具20を寝台天板13に取付けたときに不用意に動かないようにするものであり、どのような構造であっても良い。  Further, an attachment 35 for fixing the breast fixture 20 on the bed top plate 13 is provided on the bottom surface of the breast fixture 20 so that the breast fixture 20 can be positioned on the bed top plate 13.

次に、***固定具20の使用方法について説明する。***固定具20は、撮影装置10の寝台天板13の上に固定され、被検者は、***が窪み31に入るようにうつ伏せ状態で***固定具20の上に寝る。このとき、被検者の顎が第1の部分22で受け止められる。  Next, a method for using the breast fixture 20 will be described. The breast fixture 20 is fixed on the bed top 13 of the imaging apparatus 10, and the subject sleeps on the breast fixture 20 in a prone state so that the breast enters the depression 31. At this time, the subject's jaw is received by the first portion 22.

この状態で、吸引ポンプにより窪み31内の空気を適度に吸引することにより、***は穴33の方向に引き付けられる。そしてこの状態で撮影装置10は断層撮影を行う。  In this state, the breast is attracted in the direction of the hole 33 by appropriately sucking the air in the depression 31 by the suction pump. In this state, the imaging apparatus 10 performs tomography.

これにより、***は窪み31内に多少引き伸ばされ、固定された状態で撮影することができる。また、撮影時に被検者は自然***の形でうつ伏せになれるため、呼吸動、心拍動の影響を低く抑えることができる。しかも、従来のマンモグラフィのように***を強く圧迫することがないため、体への負担が小さく、正確に乳がんの位置を特定することができる。  As a result, the breast is slightly stretched in the recess 31 and can be photographed in a fixed state. In addition, since the subject can lie down in the form of a natural posture at the time of photographing, the influence of respiratory motion and heartbeat can be kept low. Moreover, since the breast is not strongly compressed unlike conventional mammography, the burden on the body is small, and the position of breast cancer can be accurately identified.

このように本発明によれば、***固定員20を使用して、***を固定し、呼吸動、心拍動の影響を大きく抑えて断層撮影を行うことで、***撮影時の***の痛みを軽減して撮影を行うことができる。また、自然***に近い伏態での撮影となるため、自然***でのがんの位置を正確に特定することができる。   As described above, according to the present invention, the breast is fixed using the breast fixing member 20, and tomography is performed while greatly reducing the influence of respiratory motion and heartbeat, thereby reducing the pain of the breast at the time of mammography. You can take a picture. In addition, since the photographing is performed in the prone state close to the natural posture, the position of the cancer in the natural posture can be accurately identified.
