<p>A radiolucent surgical table extension assembly for use in combination with a scanning machine having an enclosed scanning zone. A radiolucent support member (28) has a proximal end (230) adapted to be removably attached to one end (47) of a table (22) in a cantilever fashion. The radiolucent support member has a rigidity sufficient to support an upper torso and head of a patient. The table and the radiolucent support member are movable relative to the scanning machine to locate the radiolucent support member and the head of the patient within the scanning zone. A radiolucent mounting structure (277) is connected to the radiolucent support member, and a radiolucent head support (280) is attached to the radiolucent mounting structure for supporting the head of the patient. The radiolucent head support has an opening (364, 366, 368) extending therethrough. The opening receives a locking clamp (362, 364) for attaching the radiolucent head support to the radiolucent mounting structure.</p> |
