A patient transfer system is provided for quick, easy and comfortable movement of a patient between horizontal and vertical positions and between lateral locations for medical procedures. The system includes a gurney with a patient positioning board pivotally mounted thereon for movement between horizontal and upright positions. The board is adapted to receive a patient mold. A footrest is provided at the lower end of the board such that a patient can step onto the footrest when the board is in the upright position and lean against the board. The board is then lowered to a horizontal position on the gurney. The gurney can be wheeled into position adjacent a treatment table in a treatment room, such as for radiation therapy, and docked to the table. Laterally extending guide rails on the gurney and on the treatment table are aligned such that the board can be laterally moved from the gurney guide rails to the table guide rails, thereby quickly and easily transferring the patient from the gurney to the treatment table in an indexed known position, which can be duplicated in future treatment procedures.
