The present invention discloses a head support, in particular for use in medical radiological applications. The present head support comprises a proximal lower support cushion (20), a left support cushion (80a), a left fastening mechanism (81a), a left proximal operating handle (82a), a right support cushion (80b), a right fastening mechanism (81b), a right proximal operating handle (82b). The head support exists in a state combination being any combination of states selected from the group of states consisting of a left free moving state, in which the left support cushion (80a) is pivotally movable relative the proximal lower support cushion (20) in a plane essentially perpendicular to the central axis of the left fastening mechanism (81a) in all directions from the left side direction to the upper side direction, a right free moving state, in which the right support cushion (80b) is pivotally movable relative the proximal lower support cushion (20) in a plane essentially perpendicular to the central axis of the right fastening mechanism (81b) in all directions from the left side direction to the upper side direction, a left locked state, in which the left support cushion (80a) and the proximal lower support cushion (20) resides in a locked spatial relationship relative each other, and a right locked state, in which the right support cushion (80b) and the proximal lower support cushion (20) resides in a locked spatial relationship relative each other.To be published with Fig. 1.
