Abstract
A pressure control system for providing an interventional pressure to be applied to a defined area of a patient during a pre-interventional imaging process with an imaging system is provided. Therein, the interventional pressure corresponds to an interventional pressure applied to the defined area of the patient during an intervention via a medical technology device. The pressure control system includes a pressure plate, a force module, and a positioning apparatus. Therein, the force module is configured to apply a force on the pressure plate. Therein, the force on the pressure plate generates the interventional pressure. Therein, the positioning apparatus is configured to position the pressure plate and the force module relative to the patient.
