The VacFix® Breast Fixation system is a dedicated radiotherapy fixation solution designed to deliver precise and reproducible positioning during breast and chest wall treatments. Using mouldable VacFix® cushions, the system adapts to the patient’s anatomy, creating a stable, patient-specific support platform that ensures consistent setups across every fraction.
The cushion conforms to the torso and upper body, helping reduce involuntary movement and improving overall comfort. This approach to breast radiotherapy immobilisation enhances accuracy, reduces errors, and supports clinical workflow efficiency.
In busy radiotherapy centres, time and reproducibility are critical. The VacFix® Breast Fixation system reduces setup variability, shortens preparation time, and ensures patients remain stable and comfortable throughout longer sessions. This balance of accuracy and usability makes it a trusted solution in oncology departments worldwide.
