主权项 1. A method of image acquisition of a subject supported from a floor, the method comprising the steps of: providing a table system comprising a tabletop in support of the subject from the floor, and a mobile device having a drive to automatically transport the table system across the floor; providing an imaging system operable to perform image acquisition of the subject, wherein the table system and the imaging system are configured to move (i) independently of each other, and (ii) in concert with each other so that at least one movement of one of said systems is automatically responsive to at least one movement of the other of said systems; identifying a current position and calculating a path relative to a reference to a pre-programmed target position for image acquisition; communicating an instruction to the table system to transport the table system via the mobile device along the path to the pre-programmed target position; and receiving wireless communication signals to steer movement of the mobile device of the table system in transport of the subject and to control movement of the imaging system.
