Abstract: A radiological imaging system includes a gantry that defines an analysis zone, a source housed within the gantry, and a detector housed within the gantry. A part of a patient is placed in the analysis zone. The source emits radiation that passes through the part of the patient; the detector receives the radiation. The system is configured to receive the patient alternatively in at least two of the following arrangements: having a stationary bed and a translatable gantry, having a bed with a table top that translates through the analysis zone along a main direction, and accepting the patient in a seating or reclining apparatus.

Abstract: A system that compensates for movement during a surgical procedure on a patient includes a lidar array and a processor. The surgical procedure operates according to a surgical plan. The lidar array tracks the movement of the patient, a medical instrument, and/or a medical professional during the procedure. The processor modifies the surgical plan to compensate for one or more of the movements.

Abstract: A method and device for acquiring a radiological image of at least part of a patient placed in a gantry. The method includes emitting radiation from a source that passes through the at least part of the patient and receiving the radiation at a detector. In one embodiment the detector may include a single flat panel sensor having a radiation sensitive surface and operable in at least a flat panel mode and a linear sensor mode. The method also rotating the source and the detector around at least a part of the patient and moving the detector along guides of a panel motion system along an axis perpendicular to the central axis of propagation. Also, the method includes translating the source and the detector in a direction of movement substantially perpendicular to the central axis of propagation.

Abstract: A method and device for acquiring a radiological image of at least part of a patient placed in a gantry. The method includes causing a source to emit radiation that passes through the at least part of the patient and receiving the radiation at a detector. In one embodiment the detector may include at least one first linear sensor having a first sensitive surface and a second linear sensor having a second sensitive surface, wherein the sensitive surfaces are partially overlapped along the direction of movement. The method also includes generating the radiological image at a control unit by generating a first image acquired by the first linear sensor and a second image acquired by the second linear sensor. The control unit may overlap the first and second images in a region where the first and second linear sensors overlap.

Abstract: A radiological imaging system for obtaining images of at least a portion of the internal anatomy of a patient is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the radiological imaging system includes a bed including a support surface, pillars extending along an elongational axis of the bed, and pivots terminal ends of the pillars. The radiological imaging system further includes a load-bearing structure comprising a frame that supports the bed, and adjustable fasteners removably attached to the frame, wherein the adjustable fasters are threaded cylinders. The pivots are placed on the adjustable fasteners, and the threaded cylinders of the adjustable fasteners are rotated to adjust a positioning of the pivots, and the shape of the support surface.

Abstract: A radiological imaging device that includes a source that emits radiation that passes through at least part of a patient, the radiation defining a central axis of propagation; and a receiving device that receives the radiation and is arranged on the opposite side of the patient with respect to the source. The receiving device includes a first detector to detect radiation when performing at least one of tomography and fluoroscopy, a second detector to detect radiation when performing at least one of radiography and tomography; and a movement apparatus arranged to displace the first and second detectors with respect to the source. The movement apparatus provides a first active configuration in which the radiation hits the first detector and a second active configuration in which the radiation hits the second detector.
