Servo operated fluoroscopic table

摘要

A fluoroscopic table having a table top for supporting a patient for irradiation by X-rays generated by a source located beneath the table top, which X-rays are directed through the table top and patient to a receptor located above the patient, the receptor comprising a heavy image intensifier and spot filming device, for example, movable longitudinally and transversely of the table, and the X-ray source comprising a heavy X-ray generator and collimator which are movable as a unit longitudinally and transversely of the table for constant alignment with the receptor, the mountings for the receptor and source being separate from one another and the movements thereof being individually controlled by servo mechanisms whereby precise alignment is automatically achieved and maintained.
