A known kneeling attachment to an operating table includes a platform on which a patient kneels with the torso positioned over one end of the operating table while the buttocks rest against a buttocks support including a rigid U-shaped yoke, the arms of which are connected to opposite sides of the operating table. In the buttocks support of the invention, the arms of the U-shaped yoke are connected to the inboard end of the platform, and a mast fixed to the crosspiece of the yoke is telescopically connected to the outboard end of the platform. This permits the yoke to be lowered to the level of the platform, thus allowing a patient to kneel on or dismount from the platform without first disconnecting the yoke. By making the platform of radiotransparent materials, x-ray beams can pass from a generator positioned beneath the platform, through the front of the patient's body, and to an image tube positioned above the patient's back.
