An improved patient support table including a first or fixed table section and a second or removable table section to allow the second table section to be exchanged with other second table sections of different structure. Each of the table sections includes a mating connector end portion where two pairs of horizontally disposed pads on the fixed table section engage two pairs of horizontally disposed pads on the removable table section, where a curved edge of the removable table section engages a vertical edge on the fixed table section, and where vertical side walls of the fixed table section are engaged by beveled pegs on the removable table section. The pads, edges, walls and pegs align and support the removable table section relative to the fixed table section in the x, y, z directions, the traditional, three dimensional, mutually perpendicular coordinate system. The table sections also include cam pivoting mechanisms, each having a block, a spring biased pivotal arm having a circular recess and a rod for engaging the circular recess of the arm and creating an interference fit.

Radiotherapy treatment and imaging patient support table

A patient support system for medical treatments is disclosed having an attached table section, an exchangeable table section and a fastener for the sections, the fastener including a sleeve, a rod and a cam-lock mechanism. The system also includes an easily operated and precisely located clamp for mounting accessory devices to the top of the table sections. The sections include peripheral channels and ridges which are used by the clamp to make a tight engagement. The channels also are used to form a coordinate number scale so that the patient, clamp and accessory devices may be consistently located time after time for multiple periodic treatments.
