ABSTRACT:
In an exemplary embodiment, a patient support platform, resting on a frame, can be irradiated in a shadow-free fashion, and is provided with two longitudinally extending support rails for the mounting of accessories, and a collector basin for collecting outflowing contrast medium. To avoid grooves and cracks where fluids can accumulate and make cleaning very difficult, a single-piece, smooth support plate is provided for entirely covering the upper surface and the four lateral edges--adjoining the upper surface--of the patient support platform, and the support rails are moved to the longitudinal sides of the support plate. In addition, the support plate can be provided with a flat depression with marginal edges extending at a shallow angle for minimized attenuation of incident X-rays. The support rails can manifest a T-shaped cross section and can be mounted with the foot of the "T" on the drawn-down lateral edges of the examination table.
