ABSTRACT:
A device for positioning a patient adjacent an X-ray cassette has a plate on which a part of a human body may be located and a socket adjacent the plate. The socket has at least two slots. The two slots have different widths for receiving cassettes of different sizes. However, only one size of cassette is used at a time. The plate may be slipped between a part of the human body and a backboard to which such body is strapped. This positions a part of the body adjacent a cassette in one of said slots. The plate may also have a slanted surface to facilitate positioning a part of the body on the plate.
