Figure 1. Heidelberg Engineering Flex Module.

Figure 1

(A) The Flex Module suspended the camera head, disassembled from the standard table-top Spectralis, to allow for non-seated and non-upright image acquisition. (B) Seven pivot joints gave it maximum flexibility so that theoretically images could be taken sitting, supine, or prone with or without head down or up tilt. (C) A micro-manipulator allowed for precise z-axis movement (arrow). A 200-pound base in the stand provided stability and safety.
