C-arm diagnostic equipment

摘要

A C-arm diagnostic equipment is disclosed, which equipment provided counterbalanced variable distance between an image source and an image receptor; an increased range of orbital rotation of the C-arm accomplished by a novel arc-in-the arc structure, which structure is counterbalanced for effective control of the orbital rotation; a suspension means with a counterbalanced means for the C-arm to be used as a ceiling suspended C-arm diagnostic equipment, which suspension means are moveably mounted on ceiling rails laterally displaced from, and not extending over, a patient positioned on an examination table and are linearly displaceable along these rails in a direction generally parallel to the lengthwise axis of the examination table.
