Figure 4: — Plexiglas holder for local heart irradiation of the rat. (A) Design and dimensions of the holder. (B) The holder is mounted on a Plexiglas plate that is attached to the palm of the robotic arm. The rat holder is attached to the base plate by a click and lock mechanism. The nose cone adaptor at the top of the holder has five threaded through holes to hold the nose cone in a fixed position. The front legs of the rat are loosely bound to the adjustable arm-rest. In addition, an elastic band (3 cm wide and 6 cm long) is wrapped around the mid-section of the rat to immobilize the rat in the holder.
