Abstract
A mobile radiology machine that meets anti-toppling standards is made by limiting the unfolding of the structure that holds the X-ray tube, so that this unfolding occurs as a function of the angle of orientation of this structure about a vertical axis of exploration. It is shown that, under these conditions, it is possible to obtain satisfactory operation from a mobile radiology machine that weighs less and can be moved, if necessary, without the use of motors.
