Abstract
The present disclosure provides a subject support apparatus for a radiation therapy device comprising a base, a subject support tillable relative to the base, at least two first guides disposed between the subject support and the base and each inclined relative to the base, and a tilting module. The tilting module comprises a first actuator, and a plate disposed between the subject support and the base, and the plate is coupled to an underside of the subject support and to the first actuator such that movement generated by the first actuator is translated into movement of the plate along the at least two first guides, thereby causing the subject support to tilt relative to the base.
