In order to allow operation of key switches without awkwardly bending the elbow or wrist, and arranging key switches aesthetically in the appearance design while preventing confusion in operation and eliminating dead space within the area occupied by the key switches, key switches - - are arranged horizontally in a row slantingly with respect to the horizontal and vertical directions of an operation panel

Ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus

In order to provide an electronic device permitting a reduction in size or an expansion of its internal space while maintaining its mechanical strength, a structure having mechanical strength is integrally formed with hinges for fitting a lid-shaped display unit to a box-shaped body and a carrying handle projecting outward from the box-shaped body.

Electronic device

Coils surrounding the forehead of an imaging subject and coils wrapped around the nose elevation for the part from the nose down are provided to effectively obtain an image of a head, and by forming the front surface in a grid shape, openness, brightness and air circulation are improved.

RF coil, magnetic resonance signal measuring apparatus, and magnetic resonance imaging apparatus

Scanner for nuclear magnetic resonance tomographic apparatus

The present invention is directed to joint motion imaging and provides a vertical magnet type MRI system comprising a vertical magnet unit ( ) having a pair of opposite vertical magnets ( ), a movable table ( ) provided with wheels ( ) for traveling and a cradle ( ) to carry a specimen laid down thereon, and capable of being moved into and moved out of a space between the pair of opposite vertical magnets ( ), table locking devices ( ) for locking the movable table ( ) with the cradle ( ) being in place between the pair of opposite vertical magnets ( ), a movable chair ( ) provided with wheels ( ) for traveling and capable of being moved into and moved out of the space between the pair of opposite vertical magnets ( ), and a chair locking device ( ) for locking the movable chair ( ) in place between the pair of opposite vertical magnets ( ).

Diagnostic system with a chair and table movable on rails provided on vertical magnets thereof

In order to mitigate the feeling of confinement experienced by a subject (patient) and improve the S/N ratio of an MRI coil when used as a head coil, there is provided an MRI coil,comprising a pair of opposing coils,and,whose coil surfaces face each other with an imaging space interposed, and a quadrature coil,which has a coil surface orthogonal to the coil surfaces of the opposing coils,and,and surrounds the imaging space. When the MRI coil,is used as a head coil, the quadrature coil,is fitted over the eyes of a subject H, and the opposing coils,and,are positioned near the ears of the subject H.
