A translation drive system for an imaging system having an imaging gantry and a gantry base. The system includes at least one upper rail affixed to the imaging gantry and at least one lower rail affixed to the base, wherein the lower rail includes a stop. The system also includes front and lower carriages moveably attached to the lower rail wherein the upper rail is moveably attached to an upper carriage to enable movement of the imaging gantry relative to the base. Further, the system includes an extension spring attached between the lower carriage and the imaging gantry wherein when a lower carriage rear surface contacts the stop, the upper rail moves horizontally past a base rear surface into an extended position wherein the imaging gantry extends horizontally beyond the base rear surface. The system also includes a linear actuator located in the base that moves the imaging gantry.

A cooling system used in an X-ray generator having a cathode and anode that includes a target having a focal spot, wherein heat is generated in the anode and focal spot during operation of the X-ray generator. The system includes a heat transfer element attached to the anode wherein the heat transfer element includes a plurality of fin elements that transfer heat from the anode to surrounding air to cool the anode. The system also includes a liquid channel formed in the anode, wherein the liquid channel includes a cooling liquid. The liquid channel is located adjacent the target wherein heat from the focal spot is transferred to the cooling liquid to cool the focal spot wherein the heat transfer element, liquid channel and anode are unistructurally formed. Further, the cooling system includes a circulation pump that moves the cooling liquid in the liquid channel.
