<p>MEDICAL TABLE A medical table which can be used for examination of the spine and for other diagnostic and therapeutic back procedures, including discography and surgery, and which can be adapted for use with imaging devices, has a bottom support frame, a front support frame resting on the front of the bottom support frame, and a rear support frame resting on the bottom support frame. The front and rear support frames are spaced from each other to provide a substantial clearance for imaging devices including radiographic and fluoroscopic apparatus. A radiolucent top panel is supported at one end by the front support frame and at the other end by the rear support frame. The use of front and rear support frames rather than side support frames eliminates radiopaque material adjacent to the top panel and permits oblique, lateral, as well as anterioposterior views to be taken.</p> |
