ABSTRACT:
The illustrated embodiment shows a patient supporting device for tomographic apparatus comprising two patient supports for cooperation in moving a patient through the apparatus by means of synchronously operated conveyors, the supports having a slight space therebetween to avoid interference with the scanning beam, and the confronting edges of the supports which provide the gap accommodating the scanning beam being shiftable as the housing is tilted in opposite longitudinal directions so that the gap is always in alignment with the plane of the scanning beam. Advantageously one patient support may be disengageable from the housing so as to be removable from the housing aperture and then vertically movable to a convenient level for receiving a patient.
