ABSTRACT:
A hospital mattress assembly includes a radiolucent assembly that permits radiographic examination of a patient without disturbing or moving the patient any significant amount. The radiolucent assembly has a window disposed symmetrically between the sides of the mattress and is located under the torso of a patient. The radiolucent assembly provides enhanced spinal support for the patient while also providing an inexpensive apparatus for conducting radiographic examination of critical patients.
