An imaging or therapy system () is disposed outside of the isolation region. The containment barrier includes a substantially hollow tubular extension () protruding away from the isolation region (). The substantially hollow tubular extension surrounds an interior volume () that is in fluid communication with the isolation region and is in fluid isolation from the imaging or therapy system. The substantially hollow tubular extension is made at least partially of a material providing operative communication between the imaging or therapy system and the interior volume of the substantially hollow tubular extension.
