Evaluation of Moldcare for Head and Neck Cancer Patients

This is a Moldcare evaluation from one NHS (National Health Service) hospital in U.K.

This site evaluated the effectiveness of three different immobilisation head rest systems (initial double shell positioning system, standard head rest and standard head rest plus Moldcare).

Based on a questionnaire of eligible radiographers, they are strongly in favor of using Moldcare as a head rest immobilisation option. The standard head rest plus Moldcare combination ranks significantly higher than the other two options in terms of ability to produce stable immobilisation, patient comfort and conformity to patient's posterior neck.
