  • Anatomically Adaptable Headrest Apparatus
    Publication number: 20230320916
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a headrest for therapeutic environments which is able to adapt and conform to the individual anatomic shape of a patient's head to provide firm support in a desired position for the duration of a therapy session, and which is able to maintain that shape to provide consistent positioning of a patient's head across multiple sessions. The headrest comprises an adjustable support element coupled to a headrest shell, with a headrest cushion being affixed to the shell that can conform to the shape of the patient's head and neck. The cushion is either a vacuum cushion or formed of a memory material, such that the deformation caused by supporting the patient can be reproduced if necessary.

  • Positioning aid for transcranial magnetic stimulation
    Patent number: 10639491
    Abstract: The device for positioning a magnetic coil for transcranial magnetic stimulation in relation to the head of a patient includes a head unit with a support for the patient's head and a positioning unit, which is connected to the support, with a coil seat for holding the magnetic coil. The device also includes a fixedly installed holding arm holding the head unit. A reversibly movable connection is provided between the head unit and the holding arm, and configured such that a change of a force, which is applied onto the support by the head of the patient, leads to a relative movement between the head unit and the holding arm through the movable connection.
