ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an X-ray examination apparatus comprising a frame and a patient examination table which is slidably connected to the frame. This apparatus is particularly suitable for making Bucky exposures. The apparatus offers the advantage that it is very accessible from the sides, without mounting the guide rail (the guide rail supports the stand which supports the X-ray source) on the wall or the ceiling. To this end, a column which supports the X-ray source is movable in a longitudinal direction along a guide rail. The guide rail, in turn, is movable in the longitudinal direction on a carriage. The carriage, in turn, is movable in the longitudinal direction on a stationary frame. This results in a telescopic movement of the movable parts and in a displacement range which is larger than the width of the frame.
