One or more example embodiments relates to an image recording facility for a medical imaging system including a radiation source configured to emit radiation; a patient table having a tabletop for supporting a patient during image recording; a radiation detector configured to detect the radiation, the radiation detector being in or under the tabletop; a first bearing apparatus of bearing apparatuses bearing the radiation source; and a second bearing apparatus of the bearing apparatuses bearing the patient table.

A stand is for a medical imaging system. In an embodiment, the stand includes an X-ray tube; a driver to adjust the X-ray tube in at least three spatial degrees of freedom; at least one environmental sensor to acquire at least one environmental parameter; and a controller to control an adjustment movement of the X-ray tube by generating control signals for the drive unit and to adapt the adjustment movement based on the at least one environmental parameter.

An insulating system having improved partial discharge resistance includes an insulating tape around a conductor. The tape is a mica tape joined to a carrier. The tape is impregnated with a synthetic resin, and is interspersed with a nanoparticulate filler, present bimodally, in the form of two fractions of the filler differing in particle size and fraction size. An adhesion promoter may be in the resin.

Insulation systems with improved resistance to partial discharge, production method for this

Disclosed are insulating electric conductors against partial discharge and a method for producing an insulation system having improved partial discharge resistance and such an insulation system. There is an erosion-inhibiting effect of adhesion promoters, such as organic silicon compounds, added to resin when admixing nano particulate fillers. Good results may be attributable to a type of particle wetting of the nano particles as a result of particle wetting with organosilanes. The admixture of adhesion promoters with the resin before the addition of the nano particulate filler provides considerable advantages.

The embodiments relate to a medical device and to a method for controlling a movement of the mobile medical device. The medical device includes a chassis and a control apparatus, wherein the medical device is embodied by the chassis to perform a movement in at least two spatial directions on a plane of motion and to execute a rotary movement about an axis of rotation standing perpendicularly on the plane of motion, and the control apparatus is embodied for controlling the chassis.

Mobile medical device and method for controlling a movement of the mobile medical device

A patient support table is provided. The patient support table includes a table plate that may be moved manually or by at least one motor having a control facility. At least one sensor is provided on the table plate. The at least one sensor is operable to determine a force exerted by a user on the table plate for table plate movement and produce a sensor signal. The at least one sensor is operable to communicate with the control facility of the motor. The control facility is operable to control the motor as a function of the sensor signal that is based on a predetermined reference force value such that the reference force value is not exceeded during the table movement.

An x-ray device is provided. The x-ray device includes a C-arm, on which a radiographic source and a heat pump are arranged. At least sections of the C-arm are hollow, such that at least sections of the radiographic source and the heat pump are arranged inside the C-arm.

C-arm having a radiographic source and a heat pump

An x-ray device is provided. The x-ray device includes a C-arm that may be rotatably mounted on a robotic arm. A radiation source and a radiation detector may be arranged on the C-arm. The interior of the C-arm, which is hollow at least in sections, is accessible from at least one access side to allow at least a part of the electronic components used to operate the radiation source and the radiation detector to be integrated in the interior of the arm.

C-arm mounted on a robotic arm

An X-ray apparatus is provided. The X-ray apparatus includes a C-arm mounted on a robotic arm that is operable to be rotated about an axis of rotation. A radiation source and a radiation detector are arranged on the C-arm. The distance between the radiation source and radiation detector may be varied by a lifting device. The radiation source may be moved longitudinally relative to the radiation detector, or vice versa. The C-arm may include two arm sections that can be moved relative to one another by a lifting device. The radiation source is arranged on the one arm section and the radiation receiver is arranged on the other arm section.

A patient support device which can be connected to patient placement devices of medical examination or treatment equipment, for example an MRI device, an X-ray machine, or of ambulances. The patient support device supports a patient during medical examination and treatment. The patient support device has a structural rigidity that is less than a minimal rigidity that enables the patient support device to be self-supporting while the patient is resting thereon. Such a patient support device can be designed in a simple manner in such a way that it can be used in MRI devices, as well as in devices of other types, and can be transferred between the devices without repositioning of the patient on different support devices.

Support device for a patient

A medical apparatus has a support mechanism for a treatment and/or examination subject having a support plate for the treatment and/or examination subject that is adjustable at a base and is radiation-transparent in at least one region. The support plate is seated so as to be height-adjustable at the base and adjustable around three spatial axes and is seated so as to be optionally displaceable in the longitudinal direction and/or the transverse direction in floating fashion, or displaceable by means of a connectable drive device.
