Abstract: A mobile platform and a mobile base designed to support a device such as an X-ray machine is provided. The platform or base is configured to move using a motor-driven system associated with a navigation system. The navigation system enables the platform or base and any device supported by the platform or base (if any) to be moved automatically and with precision from one position to another within any defined space such as an examination, hybrid or operation room. An X-ray machine configured for mounting on the base is also provided. The X-ray machine is configured to move about the patient while at the same time keeping the region to be subjected to radiography within an X-ray beam.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to an examination table of a medical imaging system comprising a tabletop, a table column supporting the tabletop, and a translation system. The translation system, which is configured to at least make the tabletop longitudinally translate with respect to the table column, comprises a guiding part and a driving part, where both the guiding and driving parts may be fully integrated in said table column.
