A diagnostic support for a skin includes a radio-transparent structure that defines a folding surface of the skin and on which the skin may be stretched and consequently folded, thereby defining folded, mutually superimposed portions spaced apart from each other. The support may be used for radiographic inspection of a folded animal skin.

A radiological imaging device includes a gantry defining an analysis area configured to contain at least a portion of a patient to be analyzed and a circular extension trajectory extending around a central axis. The gantry includes a source configured to emit radiation, a detector configured to receive the radiation after the radiation has passed through the analysis area, and a casing defining a housing volume for at least the source and the detector. The casing includes a bottom arched module, an arched module mobile with respect to the bottom arched module, and a movement apparatus. The mobile arched module is housed in the bottom arched module and configured to vary the angular extension of the casing and of the housing volume keeping the source and the detector in the housing volume. The movement apparatus, outside the housing volume, is configured to move the arched modules. The radiological imaging device performs at least two of tomography, fluoroscopy, and X-ray.

The gantry includes a source configured to emit radiation; a detector configured to receive the radiation after it has passed through the analysis area; and a casing defining a housing volume for the source and the detector. The casing includes a bottom arched module and an arched module mobile with respect to the bottom arched module so as to vary the angular extension of the casing. The gantry includes a movement apparatus of the arched modules including a bottom guide integral with the bottom arched module and defining a bottom circular movement trajectory centered on the central axis; a mobile guide integral with the mobile arched module and defining a circular movement trajectory centered on the central axis; and a thrust assembly configured to engage the guides commanding the rotation of the arched modules around the central axis.

Vitrectomy probe () for the removal of the vitreous humour () and comprising a tube () adapted to be put into direct contact with the vitreous (), defining a main axis () and including an internal passage () and a opening () enabling the vitreous () to enter the internal passage () and comprising at least one cutting edge (,); a suction system suitable for the creation of vacuum within the internal passage () sucking the vitreous () into the opening (); a drive unit adapted to move the tube () defining a vibrational motion (A) of the tube () which therefore produces pressure waves reducing the viscosity of the vitreous (), and a reciprocating motion (B), having a frequency lower than the frequency of the vibrational motion (A), adapted to enable the cutting edges (,) to cut the vitreous ()
