Trays for positioning of an object within an imaging coil for imaging
procedures. Tray embodiments include a body having sides, ends, an
object-supporting wall between the sides and at least one protrusion
extending laterally outward from each side of the body. The protrusions
cooperate with the structure of the particular imaging coil to locate the
tray at a proper imaging position within the imaging coil.
Patient-immobilization devices and object-holding devices may be
associated with the trays. The trays enable off-the-shelf imaging coils
to be adapted for use with an expanded number of patient-immobilization
devices and object-holding devices.
