ABSTRACT:
An X-ray examination apparatus for irradiating an object in different directions comprises a C-shaped support whereto there are secured an X-ray source, an X-ray detector and a counterweight. The counterweight is situated at the end of the arm which also carries the X-ray detector. The movement of the counterweight is such that for all positions of the X-ray detector the center of gravity of the support, the X-ray source, the X-ray detector and the counterweight is situated in the point of intersection of the axes of rotation (the isocenter). As a result, the support is continuously balanced and manual adjustment of the support is possible. Balancing is enhanced by a cast and hence light C-shaped support.
