DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY MECHANICAL POSITIONING SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention is a rotary C-arm type of digital radiographic mechanical positional system mounted on a floor that includes a fixed vertical column with a rotational freedom, an X-ray source that provides the system with a plurality of X-rays and a locking rotary C-arm. The system also includes a single image collector disposed on the distal end of the rotary arm, a rotatable wheeled trolley that is attached to the rotary C-arm and the X-ray source and one or more safety stops. The system can also be a radiographic mechanical positional Bucky system. The present invention provides a hybrid design combining the benefits of both C-arm and Bucky systems, while providing greatly improved safety features ηοί previously available on these systems.
