Abstract: A remote-controlled, tilting table X-ray apparatus comprises a patient-supporting table carried by a tilting frame. An X-ray examining assembly comprises an X-ray source spaced above the table. A film-holder selector is disposed beneath the table. A tilt axis for the frame on a stand is provided parallel to and on each side of a transverse axis of symmetry of the frame, the tilting mechanism tilts the frame with respect to the stand in either direction about a selected one of the tilt axes. A carriage supporting the X-ray source is movable mounted on a guide running longitudinally and outwardly of the frame. The X-ray examining assembly comprises ancillary member such as an image intensifier connected to the frame. The film-holder selector and the ancillary member are guided longitudinally of the frame.
