Abstract
A mobile C-arm radiographic imaging system provides a rigid C shaped support arm for securing an x-ray source and an x-ray detector in a fixed spatial relationship relative to each other. A mobile base supports the rigid support arm using an articulating segmented arm attached to the base and to the rigid support arm. The articulating arm comprises three pivot mechanisms configured to manually translate the support arm relative to the base and to manually rotate the support arm relative to the base about any one or more of three different vertical axes.
