ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for image diagnosis including an arm rest device having support surfaces for supporting a patient's upheld arms without the use of grasping handles during image diagnosis while the patient is placed in a supine position. The apparatus includes a table on which the patient can be placed, a table support for supporting the table, a detector device for detecting radiation emitted from a radiation source passing through the patient in order to reconstruct cross sectional images of the patient, a gantry for carrying the detector to an investigating position, and the arm rest device. The arm rest device includes a U-shaped base member which has a fixing guide for mounting the arm rest device on the table support and a pair of arm rest pad members which are adjustably placed in the U-shaped base member at appropriate positions for supporting the patient's upheld arms. The arm rest pad members have triangular cross sections defining different interior angles and can be selectably arranged to provide support surfaces at different angles of inclination.
