ABSTRACT:
A patient couch assembly (B) supports a patient such that a nuclear camera system (A) can scan the patient in either (i) a longitudinal mode or (ii) a transverse tomographic mode. A table top (20) is connected adjacent one corner with an undercarriage (30) that supports the table top above the floor. Generally vertical supporting portion (34) is connected only adjacent an intersection of a first side and a foot end (22) of the top (26). This enables a camera head (10) of the nuclear camera to move peripherally around a transverse central slice of the patient and the associated support position of the table top or to move longitudinally completely along the underside of the patient and table top from head to foot.
