1. A shaped body (1) for receiving a skull on a support plane (6), said shaped body (1) being ring-shaped and open, characterized in that:
a. at least in one subregion, a contour of a cross section (7) of the shaped body (1) has a half ellipse (8) inclined with respect to the support plane (6), and
b. the contour of the cross section (7) of the shaped body (1) is asymmetrical, and at least in the one subregion, the contour of the cross section (7) of the shaped body (1) has a convex support surface with an inwardly facing part, the inwardly facing part having a substantially flat inclination configured to distribute pressure forces acting on the skull while allowing freedom of movement and wherein at least in the one subregion, an included angle (14) between the support plane (6) and an averaged tangent (13) on an outwardly facing part (11) of the cross section of the shaped body (1) is greater than an included angle (14) between the support plane (6) and an averaged tangent (13) on the inwardly facing part (12) of the cross section of the shaped body (1) and wherein a semi-major axis (9) of the half ellipse (8) is inclined with respect to the support plane (6), on which the shaped body lies substantially flat, by 25° to 50°, and the included angle (14) on the outwardly facing part (11) of the cross section is 65° to 90° and the included angle (14) on the inwardly facing part (12) of the cross section is less than or equal to 50°.
