Abstract
A radiotransparent table for supporting a patient in an X-radiography zone slides in linear bearings on a standard. The table is motor driven through a cable or like linkage anchored at the head and foot of the table and passing over the motor drive roll and an idler roll located on the stand between the drive roll and zone so that substantially the full length of the table can be moved to the radiography zone. The head and foot anchors are unobstructed in movement toward the drive roll. Preferably there are two symmetrical sets of rolls, anchors and linkages at opposite sides of the table applying neutralizing torques to the table.
