Abstract: A needle guard for a manual tattooing device includes a device body and a spring-loaded plunger having a tattoo needle at one end. The plunger is mounted for translational movement within the device body by manual activation of the plunger. The device includes a locking mechanism such that, in a first position, the plunger can be translated to extend the tattoo needle outside of the device body. However, in a second position of the locking device, translational movement of the plunger is prevented, which in turn prevents the exposure of the tattoo needle outside the confines of the device body.

Abstract: An isocenter marker for marking a treatment isocenter on a patient's body. Embodiments include a base, alignment indicia configured for alignment with external alignment sources to facilitate alignment of the base over an isocenter on a patient's body, an ink reservoir in the base, an ink channel in the base, and an actuator assembly attachable to the base. The actuator assembly includes a rupture member to open the ink reservoir and allow ink from the reservoir to flow to the ink channel when the actuator assembly is attached to the base, an ink marker including a needle with a tip configured for movement through the ink channel and positioned relative to the alignment indicia for marking an ink mark indicating the isocenter, and a marker actuator for actuating the ink marker to drive the needle from a retracted position through the ink channel to a marking position.

Abstract: This document provides methods and materials related to oral stenting. For example, oral stenting devices (e.g., adjustable oral stenting devices) and methods for using oral stenting devices for radiation therapy are provided.

Abstract: A device for marking a treatment isocenter on a patient's body includes a base including alignment indicia; a marker disposed over the base and positioned relative to the indicia for marking the isocenter on the patient's body; and an actuator for actuating the marker and causing a mark indicating the isocenter to be made on the patient's body. The actuator can include a button and a spring coupled to the marker. Compressing the actuator causes the marker to travel through an ink well prior to piercing the patient's skin. The device is disposable as intended for a single use.
