INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
THE AIO SOLUTION®
ADULT AND PAEDIATRIC
BASE PLATE IN CARBON
FIBRE LAMINATE
COMPATIBLE WITH THE
ELEKTA HEXAPOD™EVO
RT SYSTEM
Article No. : 32301/HX & 32301/HX/PED
A. GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
These products are a medical device used for patient
positioning and immobilisation of several anatomical regions in
radiation therapy. These low density plates, that can be used for
both simulation and treatment, have a cut-out which makes
them compatible with the HexaPODTM evo RT system.
To attain an optimal result, it is recommended to use this
product in combination with Orfit immobilisation products.
B. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
These carbon fibre laminate BASE PLATES are the basic element
of "THE TOTAL AIO SOLUTION TREATMENT PACKAGE”. These
base plates have a cut-out with a removable bottom part which
makes it compatible with the HexaPOD™ evo RT system. When
removing the bottom part, the iBeam holes are not covered by
the base plate so the HexaPOD frame can be attached to the
iBeam table.
Base plate 32301/HX/PED has an extra row of extracranial slots
to immobilise children in a comfortable and reproducible way.
These AIO BASE PLATES are used in combination with THE AIO
SOLUTION CUSHIONS, the RAYCAST HIGH PRECISION HEAD
SUPPORTS and BLOCKS & WEDGES, and with the EFFICAST PRE-
CUTS to form a reproducible patient positioning and
immobilisation device. Information on these other parts and
instructions on how to make the masks can be found in the
respective ‘instructions for use’ and on www.orfit.com.

D. PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
This is a fragile product, please handle with care. Always place
the base plate on a flat surface. Clear the treatment table of any
debris before positioning the base plate.
Always fix the base plate securely to the treatment couch
before positioning a patient. More information on how to fix
this base plate to a couch top can be found on our website
http://www.orfit.com/en/fixation-devices/.
If the base plate is used in overhang over the couch a Table Fix
(art. no. 35744/6) or iBeam couch fixation (art. no. 32813)
needs to be used at the caudal end to secure the base plate to
the couch top. This prevents the base plate from falling off the
table when the patient moves.
The base plates contain a removable bottom part which is not
attached to the upper part. Remove both parts separately to
prevent the parts from falling and getting damaged.
The outer slots for thorax and pelvic masks are not available
when used in combination with the HexaPOD™evo RT system.
The CFL base plate is constructed to be light in weight and to
have superb dosimetric properties. When handled roughly, it
may get damaged and fibres may come off. When this happens,

stop using the base plate to prevent fibres from getting in
contact with the patient’s or user’s skin. Contact your
distributor.
E. STORAGE
Always store the product in a safe place to prevent it from getting
damaged or falling onto other objects. Take care not to damage
the edges of the plate when storing it in an upright position.
Prevent hard objects from falling onto the plate.
Store the base plate between +10°C (50°F) and 40°C (122°F).

F.2. Dosimetric Properties
The general attenuation factor (± 0,15 %) for the Base Plates is as
follows:
6 Mv
1.4 %
15 Mv
1.2 %
Skin build-up
4 mm H2O equiv.
But the Base Plate has some areas where higher density (±1.4
g/mm³) materials have been used to reinforce some parts like
screw inserts, grip pole inserts and the leg separator insert. The
following drawing shows these areas and below the
corresponding attenuation factors at 6MV are listed.
1) fixation screw inserts Ø 1 cm: 8-10 %
2) grip pole inserts:
3) fixation screw inserts (blocks of 30x30x30mm): 8-10 %
4) table fix tunnel (runs across the base plate): 4-5 %
5) edge of pelvic slots: 8-10 %
Note: The picture below shows base plate 32301 instead of
32301/HX and 32301/HX/PED which have a removable bottom
