Embodiment Construction

[0020] figure 1 A medical device with a patient positioning device, namely a computed tomography device 10 , hereinafter referred to as "CT machine", is shown in schematic form. The CT machine 10 has an inspection opening 11 within which the working area of ​​the CT machine (ie the area in which the patient or body is required to be able to take CT images) is located.

[0021] A patient positioning device is connected to the computed tomography device 10, which has a table top 6 which is supported by a table support 12 and is movable on said table support. A patient 5 who needs to be examined is lying on the table 6 . It can be pushed into the inspection hole 11 by moving the platform 6 for CT image shooting.

[0022] The movement of mesa 6 passes through a figure 1 It is realized by a motor drive not shown in detail, which is controlled by a control device 1 . Operators can use different input devices such as figure 1 The control device 1 , for example a computer, is sho...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and method for motorised support of patient positioning. The position of a patient bed (6) and the setting of an electric motor drive (3) are recorded which may differ due to elasticity and / or flexibility of the bed drive. According to the invention, a control signal for the electric motor drive (3) is generated depending on the position of the patient bed (6) and the setting of the electric motor drive (3). The drive (3) can thus be activated for servo-support in case the patient bed (6) is manually displaced, whereby the control signal is generated depending on a change in position of the patient bed (6), which does not correspond to a simultaneous change in the setting of the electric motor drive (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for electrically supporting a patient positioning device. Background technique [0002] Patient positioning devices are often used in conjunction with medical diagnostic or therapeutic instruments such as computed tomography apparatus, magnetic resonance apparatus, X-ray apparatus, radiotherapy apparatus, ultrasonic oscillators, and the like. It is used to position a patient or other object within the working area of ​​a medical device. The working area of ​​an imaging diagnostic instrument is the scanning area in which the patient is positioned to take a diagnostic image. The working area of ​​the treatment device can be, for example, a region within a radiation beam in which radiation therapy can be carried out, for example by means of x-rays or electron beams. [0003] In order to be positioned in the working area of ​​the medical device, the positioning device usually has a surface on which the patient can lie or...
