    摘要: According to one aspect of an exemplary embodiment of the disclosure, an imaging device or system, e.g., a mammography imaging system or device, includes a detector fixed on the device and a radiation source spaced from the detector. The device further includes a number of support structures moveably disposed on the device in positions between the detector and the radiation source. The support structures include attachment structures thereon that are each adapted to engage one or more components of the imaging device for use therewith, including but not limited to a compression paddle, a magstand and a positioned including a biopsy device thereon. The support structures can be engaged with any of the components in order to simplify the manner of attachment of the components to the device and to enable the components to readily be attached to the device in a variety of configurations.

    摘要: An X-ray diagnostic device according to embodiments includes an X-ray tube, an X-ray detector, a couchtop, a drive mechanism, an input interface, and processing circuitry. The X-ray tube emits X-rays to a subject. The X-ray detector detects X-rays transmitted through the subject. The couchtop has the subject placed thereon. The drive mechanism generates the driving force for moving the couchtop. The input interface accepts instruction operations from an operator regarding the movement of the couchtop. The processing circuitry acquires one of a weight applied to the couchtop and a deflection amount of the couchtop, and determines the driving force to be generated by the drive mechanism based on one of the weight and the deflection amount and on the instruction operation.

    摘要: The present invention relates to positioning a medical imaging system in relation to an object. In order to provide improved positioning possibilities which facilitate the workflow during an intervention, a medical imaging apparatus (10) is provided with an image acquisition arrangement (12), which is positionable in relation to an object (16) to acquire image data (18) of the object from different directions. An output unit (14) is arranged to provide the image data. According to the invention, first movement direction indicators (22) are provided to indicate possible movement directions of the image acquisition arrangement in relation to the object. Further, a display apparatus (24), comprising a display area (26) to display image data (30) of an object provided by an image acquisition arrangement and a movement direction indication (28), may be provided, wherein the movement direction indication is configured to provide second movement direction indicators (32) in relation to the displayed image data of the object to indicate possible movement directions of the image acquisition arrangement in relation to the object. The first movement direction indicators and the second movement direction indicators are equivalent.
