Manual compression device for fluoroscopy.
A device for manual compression and palpation during supine fluoroscopy has been designed. It enables effective use of the physiologic grasping and lever force potentials of the hand and wrist. The device permits optimal fluoroscopic palpation and compression techniques and prevents direct exposure to the lead-gloved hand.
